Writing Week for Grads
Monday, June 10 to Friday, June 14, 2013
Register, show up each morning, go off to write, and then meet briefly at the end of the day to give a one-minute progress report. The pressure of the end-of-day report is often enough to propel students to write with a little more commitment. Sound interesting? Learn more about Writing Week for Grads.
