Dr. Elisabeth Buck is an Associate Professor of English and the author of Open-Access, Multimodality, and Writing Center Studies (Palgrave, 2018), a work invested, in part, in tracing how writing center scholars discuss and engage with new technologies in writing center publications. Open-Access was a finalist for the 2018 International Writing Centers Association’s Outstanding Book Award. Dr. Buck’s work has also appeared in WLN: A Journal of Writing Center Scholarship, Praxis: A Writing Center Journal, and Kairos: A Journal of Rhetoric, Technology and Pedagogy. She serves as Director of the Writing Center at both the Rose Hill and Lincoln Center campuses of Fordham University.
Current research projects explore the ways that writing centers disciplinarily and practically navigate emerging generative-AI technologies; neurodiversity and accessibility in writing center administration; and the extent to which academic publishing practices welcome scholars into professional conversations. She is especially excited to mentor both graduate and undergraduate writers in their own research endeavors.
