Writing Wednesdays: Faculty Writing Retreats

Select Wednesdays from 9 a.m. to noon, faculty are invited to meet face-to-face to write.

The Office for Faculty Excellence (OFE) and the Campus Writing and Speaking Program (CWSP) are excited to announce a return to Writing Wednesdays. 

Every Wednesday from 9 a.m. to noon, faculty are invited to meet face-to-face to write.

These mini retreats will follow the Pomodoro technique in which participants write for 2-25 minute sessions with room for reflection and goal-setting in between.

The goal of these sessions is to get writing projects done. Participants can work toward a specific writing task in a structured and supportive environment and discover tips for preparing for the retreat and getting your writing done.

On the first Wednesday of each month, Dr. Kirsti Cole (CWSP, English) will work with campus experts to present resources from the Libraries, the IRB office, and the Campus Writing and Speaking Program to make the writing groups as productive as possible.
