Computers and Writing Conference started as an informal meeting at the University of Minnesota in 1982. Initial discussions stemmed from a project, "Integrating Computer Technology to Serve the Needs of Students and Teachers in Writing Courses" organized by Donald Russ and Lillian Bridwell and funded by a FIPSE grant ^[1]. The inviting, informal setting of Computers and Writing Conferences has continued since this initial meeting. For over thirty years, Computers and Writing Conferences have provided a space for new and established scholars to continue discussing the rhetorical practices related to technology, writing, and pedagogy.
