Marzluf, Phillip P. "Diversity Writing: Natural Languages, Authentic Voices."
\nCCC<\/i> 57.3 (2006): 503-522.<\/p>\n

Later today our grad group (CCRGC<\/a>) is
\nengaging Marzluf’s
\nrecent
\nCCC<\/i> essay<\/a> in conversation for an hour. We developed the grad group at
\nthe beginning of the semester as a supplement to what’s already a solid lineup
\nof colloquia. Why? Primarily so we could invite faculty for focused
\ndiscussions and devise our own brief sessions around common concerns (CV
\nworkshops, conference proposal collaboration, practicing talking about our work,
\nreading stuff outside of coursework, etc.). <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’m short on time and really should be writing toward the three (better
\nconceived as 1+1+1 or .1+.1+.1+.1…tiny installments) seminar papers whose
\nterminal buzzers go off at the end of the month or thereabouts, but I wanted to
\nget down a few notes about issues I’d like us to take up during today’s session.
\nFirst, Marzluf’s article works like this:<\/p>\n

After opening with a brief account of what he means by diversity writing,
\nMarzluf sketches a brief history of Natural Language Theory (oral language is
\npurer than written; generally favors rationalism). In the third
\nsection of the essay he critiques expressivist commitments to the authentic
\nvoices of students, commitments Marzluf contends too easily lead to a
\nsalvationist ethic, embracing a student’s "natural" vernacular at the expense of more
\nself-detached models of rational (i.e. serious) academic discourse. Failed
\nwriting, Marzluf argues, paraphrasing Elbow, results "when writers falsify their
\nvoices" (513), and diversity writing can lead to such falsifications if
\nteachers over-correlate student identity and demonstrations of authenticity
\nthrough writing in the vernacular. Marzluf levels a strong critique of the
\nsalvationist proclivities that too easily align with diversity writing,
\nincluding uneven valuations of authenticity in voice (505). He
\nwrites,<\/p>\n

My goal in this article has been to reject a salvationist tendency in
\n diversity-writing scholarship, one that attempts to save, affirm or legitimate
\n students. Though diversity writing should provide students a comfortable
\n space for interrogating difference, it need not force students to perform
\n their commitment to language and their communities. This is not to imply
\n that diversity writing should be apolitical or impersonal, only that it is a
\n clumsy apparatus indeed for students to use to reveal and perform themselves.
\n (517)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Early in the essay he defines "diversity writing" as "a pedagogical approach that invites
\nstudents to apply critical reading and writing strategies to situate themselves
\nwithin, analyze, and research the political and cultural assumptions,
\nconsequences, and issues that constitute human difference" (503).
\nDiversity writing becomes synonymous with diversity studies, or, as I read it, a
\nlabel consistent with "studies of difference." <\/p>\n

Here are a few of questions\/concerns I want to get at later today:
\n1. On the basis of his description, how does our FYC curriculum at
\nSyracuse match with the curriculum at Kansas State–particular to their
\n"diversity writing" orientations? Does his definition work for us? Does it
\nadequately name the thing we’re trying to do or enact when we teach in a
\n"diversity writing" curriculum?
\n2. With his overt emphasis on race in "diversity writing," how is his
\ncurricular model problematic for this narrowed focus? How might his
\narguments about Natural Language Theory, salvationist motives, and authenticity
\ngeneralize to broader identifications?
\n3. What do you make of his use of content<\/i> as a rhetorical strategy
\nfor answering "an audience of skeptical students, parents, and administrators,
\nwho may react strongly to the political connotations of ‘diversity’ or fear that
\nevaluation will be based on the ideological whims of individual writing
\ninstructors" (519)?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
