The Imprint – which is the student-run newspaper at the University of Waterloo, where I was teaching the English 101B (Introduction to Rhetoric) course at the time – published a profile of me in its March 23rd, 2012, based on an interview with student reporter Rachel Dyck. In the article, I candidly discuss my upbringing, my teaching philosophy, and my influences and interest – above all, reflecting on opportunities for education and social change in Canada.
