Primarily because we read an article on Texas Tech's unique program for freshman writing this week in my 505b class, I have administrative and infrastructural concerns on my mind. In that vein, I read the Richard Miller piece, and his video with some of the specific issues regarding what we will be teaching and what will count as "work" in the coming years. For some background Texas Tech uses an online essay dropbox and breaks TA work into two main chores: teaching and grading. For example, some TAs grade and teach, while other perform only one of these tasks.
