WIC CULTURE OF WRITING AWARDS IN THE DISCIPLINES 2024<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Every spring term, the Writing Intensive Curriculum program hosts the WIC Culture of Writing Awards in the Disciplines<\/a> (COWA). These awards promote an academic culture at OSU that values the teaching, practice, and modeling of writing excellence across the disciplines. WIC\u2019S COWA encourage our undergraduates and broader community to value the unique qualities of excellent writing within the disciplines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winners receive a $100 prize, $50 of which comes from the WIC Program, and $50 from the nominating unit. Winners will also be invited to submit their papers to ScholarsArchive@OSU<\/a>, Oregon State’s thesis and dissertation archive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any paper that was written by an OSU student for an undergraduate course (including non-WIC courses) is eligible for COWA nomination. COWA nominees are nominated by participating departments. While the nomination process takes place within each unit, COWA awardees are selected by faculty within each discipline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
