Using the data collected by the CCCC Committee on the Major, the authors demonstrate how quickly the writing major is growing, map the commonalities among various majors, discuss some of the problems in developing a major, and raise questions about what a writing major should be.

Maxine Hairston’s 1985 Chair’s Address is the first in an occasional series prompting us to reread and “re-vision” pivotal articles that have appeared in CCC. The full texts of those pieces will be available at CCC Online (http://inventio.us/ccc), and I invite you to reread those important texts online along with these new commentaries in print. For this inaugural appearance of “Re-Visions,” Joseph Harris and Susan McLeod comment on “Breaking Our Bonds and Reaffirming Our Connections,” excerpts of which appear below (originally published in the October 1985 issue of CCC [Vol. 36, No. 3, pp. 272–282]).
