Dinner and a Draft, with Jonathan Gilligan
March 28, 2013
6:00-7:30 pm, Dean of the Commons Residence
Why attend “Dinner and a Draft”? You have to eat. And you have to write. We think it’s a match made in heaven.
Join the Writing Studio for a writing-related feast hosted by Frank and Jane Wcislo at the Dean's residence on the Ingram Commons on Thursday, March 28, from 6:00-7:30. Gather with us over a meal to talk about what’s most challenging and most rewarding about getting words on the page in college.
Interested in writing in the sciences or about public policy? Want to talk about mixing academic and creative writing? This might just be the dinner for you.
Our guest of honor for “Dinner and a Draft” on March 28 will be Professor Jonathan Gilligan from Earth and Environmental Sciences. Professor Gilligan writes about the intersection of science, ethics, and public policy, and he does some creative writing, as well. Don’t miss this chance to get to know Professor Gilligan.
