Graduate Research Network
The Graduate Research Network (GRN) is a network of scholars from digital rhetoric, computers and writing, and technical and professional communication who collectively sponsor a mentoring workshop concurrently with the Computers and Writing Conference. The aim of GRN is to provide a supportive and generative setting for graduate students to share work-in-progress research with scholars of similar interests and expertise. Work-in-progress reviews for work at any stage of completion—from conceptualization to publication—are facilitated with scholars in the field serving as discussion leaders.
