2. “Academia was where we worked but we wanted a life on the outside.  We did not want to be imprisoned in the institution of higher learning that would reward us and then demand that we stop being outlaws–that we stop stepping out on the edge” (Hooks 2).

3.  Should teacher preparation for composition studies include ESL or TESL training?  If so how thorough does it need to be?
