Throughout his career, he's been an important friend and mentor to many of us. At his retirement party in September, we will be presenting Walt with a book of notes of appreciation. If you would like to contribute a story, note of appreciation, and/or photo for the book, please complete this form by June 1. Though some of the details are TBD, we are working with Walt's family and the university to put together a celebration of Walt's career here at NC State in September. There's a spot on that form to indicate if you'd like details about the event in case you're able to attend. If you have multiple photos, you can complete the form multiple times or just send them to Danica Cullinan at dlcullin at ncsu.edu (that email address is also on the form). Walt doesn't know about the book, so please keep that quiet. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfxxVDSDtdBI_rvo-pdso8v10FR7X4-l8NteQYWgpYPqXj31A/viewform Thanks, Jeff -- Jeffrey Reaser, PhD (he, him, his) Professor NC State University Department of English Director of Undergraduate Programs & Advising Coordinator - Secondary English Education Associate Director Language and Life Project https://chass.ncsu.edu/people/jlreaser/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
