About
The central goal of Lindsay's professional career is supporting students in their writing and in their day-to-day lives. Lindsay has taught numerous courses in UIC's Department of English (film, composition, rhetoric) and served as Assistant Director in the Writing Center for seven years. In UIC's Graduate College, Lindsay has worked with the Fellowships and Awards Coordinator to help graduate students apply for external fellowships (Ford, Fulbright, Mellon-IDRF) as well as a range of internal fellowships and awards.
As the Graduate College's Writing Specialist and Academic Advisor, Lindsay assists students with a range of scholarly and career-focused writing—from grant applications to cover letters and CVs.
