Question: Give an example of how you have advocated for graduate student needs and experiences on your campus or in your work.
Amanda Presswood: This semester I am giving a talk about tutoring multilingual students at my universities writing center. As someone who has done a lot of work in the area of multilingualism and writing center studies I believe that it is my responsibility to share what I have learned with my fellow graduate students. I would also really like to share the work that the Antiracist taskforce has been doing this semester with the other graduate students on my campus. I believe that especially in this day and age it is essential that as graduate students we are making sure that the work we do is inclusive to all students.
