Do you get the post-holiday blues or need a little inspiration during the cold winter months? Apply for the Faculty Winter Writing Retreat!
This 3-day writing retreat is intended to provide faculty with an opportunity to fully engage in their scholarly work without distraction, provide a community of colleagues to provide feedback and support and learn about new skills and resources for scholarly productivity. This opportunity is open to assistant, associate, and full professors; as well as tenure track and clinical applied faculty. Participants should plan to engage in all three days, participate in all activities, and ditch phones and emails.
Benefits of writing retreats include:
- Protected writing time
