Abstract
The article presents the perspective of a writing program administrator with an experience in second language writing on the ideology of monolinguism.

Suggestions that writing program administrators might consider in developing or modifying programs for the linguistically diverse students are offered. Issues regarding the creation of additional administrative positions to address second language writing are raised.
