Editor’s Introduction

The second issue of the MNWe Journal reflects the conversations at our conference in three ways.

First, it reflects the presentations, delivered in person and online, at the 2023 and 2024 conferences.  We are grateful to the authors and presenters who elaborated on their work for this issue.

Second, it reflects the diverse interests of the conference and its communities — diverse pedagogical approaches, diverse administrative challenges, and multiple genres for sharing insights.

Finally, third, it reflects the geographic and demographic diversity of the organization and its community — from across the spectrum of institutions of higher education, the lived experiences of teachers, and the communities of urban, rural and suburban Minnesota.

We are grateful, too, to you, as our readers, who make this community and its journal possible.
