Graduate Student Writing Group
Graduate students working on writing projects during the summer can register for a 6-week program that will use the Pomodoro technique for writing. This technique uses a timer to break work into intervals, separated by small breaks. This group is designed for graduate students to gather and get some community to encourage and write together.
Schedule:
Fridays, from September 3rd through December 10 (except November 26) from 9 am-11 am.
