The "Write Time"

What is the "Write Time?"

The Graduate School offers the “Write Time,” a scheduled weekly time for graduate students to work on writing projects. The “Write Time” will be offered every Tuesday and Wednesday in the Graduate Student Center in Susan Campbell Hall. Drop in any time on:

• Tuesdays between 8:30 am and 11:00 am

• Wednesdays between 8:30 am and 12:00 pm

The “Write Time” combines gentle accountability and peer support in a (quiet) group setting. Whether you are wrangling a thesis, dissertation, article, or proposal, the “Write Time” will help you honor your commitment to write. The “Write Time” is offered twice a week and is designed to help you set aside a specific block of time each week that works with your schedule – you choose when you come and how long you stay. Working on your writing in the presence of other grads working on their projects will provide a supportive environment, as you write, struggle, and – we hope – ultimately triumph in parallel.  By setting aside a regular time and place to write, some of those other grads may become familiar faces – people you don’t want to let down by skipping your “Write Time!”
