Overview of Ongoing Event Series at the Writing Studio

The purpose of this image is to promote the Core Studio Workshop series, information about which can be found on the webpages featuring this image.Core Studio Workshop Series

The Writing Studio is excited to launch a new weekly writing workshop series for 2025-2026 that we are calling our Core Studio Workshops.

Core Studio Workshops are open to all, but are intended specifically for first-year undergraduates as new college writers. Each of these weekly workshops will be an opportunity to focus in on a particular topic geared to helping you grow your skills and deepen your understanding of college writing in a group setting.

Check the Writing Studio’s Core Studio Workshops page for a full calendar of workshop topics and dates.

The words "Dissertations Writers' Retreat Series" appear on a gold-colored rectangle in the upper half of this image, while the bottom half features a field of purple flowers with the sun on the horizon in the distance. The two halves are divided by a bar containing words describing the event series: "Productivity, Community, Perspective, Support."Dissertation Writers’ Retreat series

The Writing Studio’s dissertation writers’ retreats provide dissertating graduate students with time to work individually in a quiet, collegial atmosphere. We couple ample writing time with optional, one-on-one consultations and daily workshops meant to focus writers on their argumentation, chapter structure, and daily writing goals. We hold an annual week-long retreat during the summer and mini-retreats during fall and spring breaks.

Weekly Graduate Writing Groups

Here at the Writing Studio, we know that tackling graduate-level writing projects can feel both exciting and overwhelming. That’s why we have designed a graduate student writing group program to help graduate students navigate their graduate writing journey.
