SO excited to share the release of my piece on multilingual student identities in the Journal of Basic Writing! It’s a privilege to be included alongside such stellar scholars.

A toast, to my 5-year defense-iversary, and the best mentors I could have ever asked for, Drs. Christie Toth and Jay Jordan.

Just finished reading Hua Hsu’s memoir, ‘Stay True.’ A beautiful tribute to a friend, and musing on what it means to be an Asian American, and child of immigrants. A particularly poignant passage:

Not expecting anyone to read all this, but since we’re talking about him, R.I.P., Bob Barker. ❤️

“Hydrate or Die-drate!” - Sean Bonnette says, brandishing a water bottle and taking a swig, before launching into “Kokopelli Face Tattoo.” Excellent show tonight by @AJJtheBand at @WebsterHall. #RockResponsibly

State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-OK) has penned several bills loosening gun restrictions, including the nation’s first anti-red flag law. He thinks these bills protect the Second Amendment – and that they make us safer. We think it's probably one or the other. Watch it on @AppleTVPlus.

Non-native English Speakers, what’s a word from your language that you think is perfect that doesn’t have an English equivalent?

Take us to church.

@GrimmProspects @ncte_tyca @NCTE_CCCC TYCA Taskforce on Engaging CCCC!

[Dr. Charissa Che @CharissaChe]

Feeling invigorated and grateful for the lifelong friends I got to see again, and new ones I made at #TYCA23 and #4C23. It was good to be in person again. So long, Chicago—and cheers to all my fellow writing nerds! #teamrhetoric @ncte_tyca @NCTE_CCCC

[Dr. Charissa Che @CharissaChe]

Just landed in Chicago! Shout out to my fellow TYCA and CCCC attendees. See y’all starting at the TYCA Opening Session tomorrow 👍 @ncte_tyca @NCTE_CCCC #TYCA23 #teamrhetoric

Very excited to read this! Congrats to @ShaneAWood on the release.

We’re about 10 days out from #TYCA23 in Chi-Town and I’m looking fwd to presenting in the below panels. Excited to reunite w/friends & colleagues after 3 years, talk about all things two-year college writing, and explore the city. Plus, keynote @DecoteauIrby! @ncte_tyca

Ten dead. At least ten injured. Shooter still at large. Happy fucking new year to us, the country where this happens regularly and nobody’s gonna do a damn thing about it. #MontereyPark https://t.co/KyjuawKn8B

[Dr. Charissa Che @CharissaChe]

Tired, heartbroken, and angry. Woke up to the news of 10 dead in mass shooting in Monterey Park. This could’ve been my — and your — loved ones. It could’ve been us.

Can’t we just celebrate our culture without worrying about getting gunned down? Is that too much to ask for?

[Dr. Charissa Che @CharissaChe]

Chairing @ncte_tyca Nat’l was one of my 2022 highlights. Holding my opening remarks in TETYC & knowing they’ll reach future TYC faculty is the cherry on top. Infinite TY @darinjensen, Steph Maenhardt, conference planning cmte. Excited to reconvene in Chicago w/ Chair Jason Evans!
