This book provides scholars, educators, and legislators with a personal, classroom-level tour of daily life at a community college. Readers will accompany the author into the classroom as he goes about his work as an English teacher meeting with classes and corresponding with students on Blackboard and e-mail. Answering the call for "student-centered scholarship", this book blends traditional academic writing with chapters that feature a rich variety of student work, including essays, journal entries, poems, art, and responses to creative assignments. In this volume, Sullivan theorizes the modern community college as a social justice institution: by mission and mandate, the modern community college has democratized Americas system of higher education and distributed hope, equity, and opportunity more broadly across the nation. Patrick Sullivan is Professor of English at Manchester Community College, USA
