Friends, this page is under continual construction and revision. Please feel free to send me comments or suggestions for additions or revisions at mgellis@kettering.edu. In addition, I have added The Second Rhetoric Page at Kettering University, which covers additional links on writing, rhetoric and writing programs, literature and popular culture links, politics and political rhetoric, religion and religious rhetoric, law and legal issues, indices of colleges and universities, publishers, links for finding individuals and organizations, news and information services, and other related subjects. This page was last updated on May 17, 2013.
