Greetings! My name is Melanie Kill. I’m an English professor specializing in writing studies and digital rhetoric (and studying Wikipedia) at the University of Maryland just outside Washington, DC. I also chair the Wikipedia initiative of the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC), which is an academic professional association of college writing teachers and scholars.
I am so pleased to announce that the CCCC Wikipedia Initiative is hiring a Wikimedian-in-Residence! Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight suggested this list as a good place to circulate the position announcement and seek advice as we get started. The position is remote and full-time from August 2020–May 2021. Please see the full announcement at

All my best,
Melanie
