The Nebraska Writing Project celebrates Robert's decades-long leadership of our site, and we wish him all the best as he retired from NeWP!
It was under Robert's leadership that we launched new rural place-based initiatives, build the democratic leadership structure that defines NeWP today, and launched programs from C3WP, to Warrior Writers, to Poetry of Place, and more.
As Robert retires, he wants to leave NeWP with a parting gift, the Robert E. Brooke Nebraska Writing Project Fund, which will serve to support NeWP teachers and programming. In lieu of retirement gifts, Robert invites his NeWP community to contribute to the fund. We just hit 10% of our goal, and we invite you to join us.
