Key Points: 
  • The Bedford New Scholars program was established 15 years ago to gain insights about topics critical to teaching the next generation of rhetoric and composition students.
  • Composition courses are some of the most common and important prerequisite and gateway courses students must pass in order to graduate.
  • However, a 2019 study by the Gardner Institute found that gateway courses like Composition can stand as “gatekeepers” to degree completion.
  • Martin’s has long been connected to the Composition community with its widely used titles like A Writer's Reference and The Bedford Reader.
