The Faculty Writing Retreat offers you the opportunity to commit to
a day of writing surrounded by your colleagues who will have made
the same commitment as you. Published research – and our colleagues
at other institutions who regularly host faculty writing retreats –
all tell us the positive energy of being around faculty peers who
are also writing (and struggling to write) helps faculty get
substantial work done, even in one day.
As to the schedule for the retreat, you will arrive and begin
writing. We are certain there will be much writing advice to be
shared during lunch, which will be served at 12:30pm. We hope you
will be able to join us for the day. Please remember that
participation is limited; please RSVP at ctl@stjohns.edu or ext.
1859. If you have any questions, email Anne Geller (gellera@stjohns.edu) or Maura
Flannery (flannerm@stjohns.edu).
