We would like to announce the publication of our Journal's special issue!
Syllabus Journal has just published its latest issue at http://www.syllabusjournal.org/syllabus/index
We invite you to review the Table of Contents below and then visit our web site to review articles and items of interest.
This special issue contains timely discussion on the state of the syllabus, especially its meaning and tone, all the more pressing, given unprecedented challenges currently confronting higher education. In the words of guest editors, "Positioning the syllabus as a key artifact in the modern academy, one that encapsulates many elements of intellectual, scholarly, social, cultural, political, and institutional contexts in which it is enmeshed, we offer in this special issue of Syllabus a set of provocations on the syllabus and its many roles. Including perspectives from full-time and part-time faculty, graduate students, and librarians, the issue offers a multifaceted take on how the syllabus is presently used and might be reimagined."

A very useful advice, especially for those of us who teach first generation students. The title is a bit decieving. It is more about how students can built good intellectual habits and connections in college. And how our syllabi can help.
