I seems that most of my classmates prefer Strunk and White because it is short and punchy. Like me, they view it as a reference book with a few writing guides. Many students appear to prefer a short, to-the-point read. Others don't want a reference book. They find Joseph Williams's book a tough, dry read, but much more useful. Those that are striving to be professional writers, prefer Williams.
Most students found the peer review process for the Writing Technology project to not be truly useful. They didn't feel that got a "true" critique. I think we should all remember that it's not easy to criticize one's classmates.
