Abstract
This thesis examines civic engagement in undergraduate writing and rhetoric major programs, considering the rhetorical situations and rhetorical contexts of two degree programs: the BA degrees in Writing and Rhetoric at Oakland University and the University of Central Florida. Ultimately, the author proposes that undergraduate writing major programs should carefully consider their definitions of civic engagement, curricular location of civic engagement, sustainability of civic engagement initiatives, faculty identities and roles in such initiatives, and student conceptions of and experiences with civic engagement.
