Dissertation Writing Retreat

The Dissertation Writing Retreat offers graduate students from all disciplines a distraction-free time to write and receive feedback on their dissertations while working in a community of writers with shared goals and ambitions. Each day, participants will spend the day writing, rewriting, and reworking their dissertation chapters. In addition, writers will participate in individualized writing consultations and group workshops designed to help them complete their projects. Because the retreat is committed to giving each participant individualized support, space is limited. The Dissertation Writing Retreat is organized by the University Writing Center with support from the School of Interdisciplinary and Graduate Studies. The Retreat will take place from May 21st to 25th in the University Writing Center in the Ekstrom Library and will include lunch and snacks.
