We are proud of our excellent publications here at SUNY New Paltz. Not only do they display strong student writing, but they are also shared as models in many classes. Below you can read our publications past and present.
New Voices, New Visions
This collection features the best writing in our Composition I and Writing & Rhetoric courses. The selections display the wide variety of modes, genres, and rhetorical situations that prompt students to develop their critical thinking, research, and reflective skills through an engaged writing process.
New Voices, New Visions 2022-2024 can be read here.
The 2022 collection, New Voices, New Visions can be read here on Pressbooks.
Fresh Exchanges (formerly Fresh Perspectives/ESL Exchanges)
In previous years, the Supplemental Writing Workshop program in Composition would compile a collection of the best writing under the guidance of SWW Program Director, Rachel Rigolino. For many years, she and now-retired instructor, Penny Freel (many times with the help of former adjunct instructor Pat Corbett) would work together to edit and publish two texts into one printed collection of thoughtful and motivating work from student writing in Composition SWW courses and Composition ESL/multi-language learner courses. This publication showcased academic and creative skills, and explored multicultural voices on our campus and beyond.
Recent editions of Fresh Exchanges are available by request.
