Hosted by the Office of Faculty Development 

These virtual writing sessions offer dedicated time and facilitated support for faculty to focus on scholarly writing in the company of colleagues. The sessions will begin with a small group 10-minute check-in with each participant introducing themselves, their writing project, and specific goals for the session. For the next 70 minutes faculty will turn off their cameras and microphones to write together in their own protected environment. In the final 10 minutes participants will rejoin their small groups to discuss their progress, challenges, and to set writing goals for the coming week. 

Facilitator: Wendy Varner, Director of Faculty Development
