    a haiku must have
    five, then seven, then five beats

    "Haikus are easy
    but sometimes they don't make sense.

    I'm quoting this from
    a shirt I saw on Threadless:

    I can't reach the Writing Center Haiku Project via the posted link. Can you fix the problem? My peer tutors are eager to read what's on the site.

    I think the Haiku project has closed for submissions. The OP presented at the recent IWCA conference. Your best bet is to contact him directly.

IWCA Forum: Peer Tutor => What do we call ourselves: the poll!

By
As a frightened freshman, I wandered deep in the bowels of the library basement. My eyes darted from room number to room number, looking for the aid my professor promised I could find. At the end of the hall, a golden light shone from an open doorway. My approach was slow and I lingered on the threshold.

At the time, I did not know I would spend most of my weekdays in that room as a senior or how mundane this new world would become. How could I? I didn’t even know how much insight I would receive from my tutor that day! Being a learner in the writing center is a wholly different experience than being a tutor, yet I know many of my colleagues have not had the same learning experiences that I have. I think this is unfortunate because there is much that a tutor can gain from being a learner. It was my freshman year of college and everything was new. For me, that meant that fear...
