Nancy L. Reichert
received a B.A. degree in English (with teacher certification)
from the University of Dayton in 1983. She taught high school English for
six years: three years in Morocco, Indiana, and three years in St.
Petersburg, Florida. In 1989 she took a leave of absence from Dixie
Hollins High School and pursued graduate work at Florida State University.
At Florida State University she studied Southern Literature and Rhetoric
and Composition. She received her M.A. in 1991 and her
Ph.D. in 1995. Dr. Reichert then taught composition,
American literature, and creative writing for four years at Montgomery
College in Conroe, Texas, before coming to Southern Polytechnic State
University in the fall of 1999.
In the Spring of 1996, Dr. Reichert won the Russell Reaver Award for
Outstanding Dissertation in American Literature or Folklore from Florida
State University for her dissertation, Separate and Communal Selves:
Eudora Welty's Investigations of Human Relationships. In her dissertation
Dr. Reichert explores the dual nature of human beings through a Kristevian
lens. Her study articulates the difficulty Welty's characters have in
acknowledging the Kristevian dialectic of semiotic and symbolic, and the
jouissance characters experience when they manage this negotiation
process.
Dr. Reichert is interested in the intersections between critical theory
and rhetoric/composition theory, literature and composition, the personal
and social aspects of writing, and technology and writing. Her
publications and paper presentations in the composition field have
explored these intersections and have focused on how these intersections
influence the practice of teaching writing and literature.
Currently, Dr. Reichert directs the University Honors Program and teaches
composition and American Literature for the ETCMA Department. In her classes
she seeks to help students become thoughtful readers and writers who
engage in texts on their own and in small-group and full-class
discussions. Dr. Reichert is active in the following professional
organizations: The Modern Language Association, The National Council of
Teachers of English, The Eudora Welty Society, The National Collegiate
Honors Council, and The Teaching of English in the Two-Year College.
