Lisa Langstraat has been asked to serve as a member of the newly-created College Composition and Communication Veteran Students Task Force, recently formed with a term ending in November 2013. The task force will document how institutions around the country are doing in response to the influx of veteran students; develop a “Best Practices” document based on research; draft a position statement and guidelines for instructors and tutors of college composition to better serve the increasing number of veterans; and develop strategies to respond to the needs of veterans–including those who may not enter post-secondary classrooms–through the promotion of literacy, language and writing.
