Abstract: This series of issues of a newsletter called "The Dangling Modifier" begins with Volume 1, Number 1 (Fall 1994) and concludes with Volume 9, Number 2 (2003). The newsletter is subtitled "A National Newsletter by and for Peer Tutors in Writing" for the majority of the issues--the last issue changes the subtitle to "An International Newsletter by and for Peer Tutors in Writing." The newsletter was begun by the Penn State Writing Center staff with the idea that a national newsletter would allow tutors to: work on a large scale editing project, write for a national publication, and work and learn with tutors across the country. Volume 1, Number 1 consists of representative articles entitled: "Tutoring ESL Writers; "On-line Tutoring"; "Marketing Your Tutoring Experience"; "Tutoring Sensitive Issues"; and "Featured Writing Center." This series contains the following issues: Volume 1, Number 1 (Fall 1991); Volume 1, Number 2 (Spring 1005); Volume 2, Number 2 (Spring 1996); Volume 3, Number 1 (Fall 1996); Volume 4, Number 1 (Fall 1997); Volume 4, Number 2 (Spring 1998); Volume 6, Number 1 (Spring 1999); Volume 6, Number 2 (Summer 1999); Volume 7, Number 1 (Fall 2000); Volume 8, Number 1 (Fall 2001); Volume 8, Number 2 (2000); Volume 9, Number 1 (2002); and Volume 9, Number 2 (2003).
