Why did I choose the WRaCS DE?

I chose the WRaCS DE because it introduced me to writing studies as a distinct, independent field of scholarship. While I had always appreciated the art of writing and the nuances of rhetorical analysis, I initially understood these as part of literature rather than as a standalone discipline. This DE has allowed me to deepen my understanding of writing, rhetoric, and composition studies while also honing a set of skills that speak to my passions for writing and enrich every aspect of my academic and professional life.
