The Public Work of Rhetoric_nodrm
63
The rhetorical engagement that I have pursued in my research and through my residency in Kent, and that I briefly summarize here, exploits the eco- nomic preconditions of civic engagement. The power of place, as Deloris Hay- den reminds, is in the shared time, shared territory, and shared resources that can coalesce for a better future. When university residents venture forth into local communities and in the name of civic engagement, we are wise to open our methods and dispositions to the economies of practice and culture out- side of the academic milieu. What I argue for, and have tried to illustrate through my public work, is that culture as an economy operates as both com- modity and critique, leading the rhetorician to surprising partnerships and objects of analysis. Our rhetorical engagements must thirst for such oppor- tunities.

25. Since the 1970s the conservative movement has built an enduring and a well-
coordinated philanthropic apparatus to forward its interests and that of private enter- prise. This philanthropic apparatus has fostered federal policies that include deregulating business and cutting social services. Liberal philanthropic organizations have scrambled to address the humanitarian needs that these cuts have created.

37. At the University of Utah in the early 1990s, I developed a multisection course
titled "Professional Writing: Business," which featured a consultancy model of instruc- tion. As a variant of service learning, groups of students found their own client, estab- lished a working relationship with the client, built an assessment model of the client's writing and communication, and decided whether to stop with the assessment or to propose new services.
