term “knowledge work,” describing it as work that is not easily designed because knowledge does not result in a product but instead, in a contribution of knowledge to somebody else? Such then is the hallmark of the true university—where “knowledge work” is generated, criticized, expanded, analyzed, assimilated—an academic program of the National Writers Workshop that only Silliman University can design and achieve! For the past three weeks, the design of creative writing as knowledge not only sharpened some more to conform to what a true university is, but also, each one of the writing fellows— individually screened and selected—were tested to the limit by the mentors of this innovative summer program, a knowledge journey towards selfdiscovery of qualities that are self-imposed in their desire to perfect their craft. Now then is a happy moment for us in the University to have welcomed everyone of our writing fellows to the Rose Lamb-Sobrepeña Writers Village, the permanent home of Silliman University’s Writers Workshop. In the last three weeks, I am sure that our fellows have also discovered that although the Rose Lamb Sobrepeña Writers Village is only a year old, it is also the only place on this earth where the tranquility of the environment could give them their needed serenity to achieve their creative genius! Again, congratulations on having been admitted to this summer’s program! Dr. Betsy Joy B. Tan Acting President, Silliman University
From the director in residence Dr. Rowena Tiempo-Torrevillas Director-in-Residence At this moment, across the planet, the fields of Iowa are being tilled and prepared for planting the seed that will feed the whole world. Where we are today, a world away, the seeds from Iowa — the nursery of writing worldwide, the Iowa Writers’ Workshop — are being reaped in our midst: fifty years of the written word, shared, cultivated, celebrated in a golden harvest.
