November Writing Support Group

Virtual Event

This month the Research and Scholarship Team is piloting a new writing challenge structure: a November writing support group.

This semester is coming to a close and to say that it has been challenging does not fully express the arduous nature of Fall 2020. Keeping this in mind and with Thanksgiving quickly approaching, we are hosting a two-week writing support group. We want to create an empathetic space for researchers and scholars to accomplish personal writing goals while coping with the effects of multiple stressors (the global pandemic, recent hurricane, presidential election,  upcoming holiday season, or any other personal obstacles we may not know about).
