Hi, my name is Chloe Ragsdale, and I am a co-editor of Volume 6 of Praxis! I am currently a junior and am working towards my bachelor’s degree in English and Political Science with a minor in Honors and Leadership. I am very passionate and involved in the writing community on campus, as I currently work as the Editor-in-Chief of CU’s student newspaper, The Sentry. My essay about the 2022 gubernatorial race in Texas between Beto O’Rourke and Greg Abbott was published in Volume 5 of Praxis, which greatly developed my writing and research abilities, as well as introduced me to the high standards that Praxis works to achieve. As a writer for Praxis, I learned about the intricacies that go into making this publication as scholarly and influential as it is and am very excited to be a part of the editorial team this year. Students who are passionate about writing, politics, research, and contributing to their community should submit their work to Praxis to be a part of Volume 6!
Canvas Outage
Canvas access has been restored for our users, but the service reliability remains uncertain. Due to recent events, Canvas has had intermittent outages which are at the discretion of the vendor and may occur during a final exam. Faculty and staff may continue to use Canvas, but we strongly advise faculty and students to prepare a contingency plan for turning in assignments and final exams in the event Canvas access becomes unavailable again.
Instructure, the company that owns Canvas, has provided an FAQ about the incident, which may not answer all your questions. We will share more information if it becomes available.
