Bio
Elaine McKeand: I am an unapologetic maize
and blue fan, having received my B.A., M.A. and Ph. D from the University
of Michigan. I specialized in teaching composition and studying Victorian
and Modern British and American fiction. At this point in my career, I
particularly enjoy seeing students reach a threshold of success in their
own writing, both personal and academic, and to that end I teach primarily
composition courses; additionally, these interests have led me to become
the Writing Lab Liaison for the English Division.
