Writing Across the Curriculum and the
Center for Teaching and Learning
Invite
You to A Faculty Writing Retreat
Location: Institute for Writing Studies, Library
Room 150, Queens Campus
Dates: Saturday, March 24, 2012 from 10 a.m. to 4
p.m.
To Register: Contact the CTL at ctl@stjohns.edu or ext. 1859;
participation is limited.
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 own
experience from previous St. John's Faculty Writing Initiative
writing retreats we've held – tells 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. Please remember that
participation is limited; please RSVP atctl@stjohns.edu or ext. 1859. If you have any
questions, email Anne Geller (gellera@stjohns.edu) or Maura
Flannery (flannerm@stjohns.edu).
