Bootcamps & Retreats

Writing Bootcamps and Retreats both provide opportunities to spend a concerted amount of time on your writing throughout and between quarters in community with other writers. Bootcamps and Retreats are held in person but may be hybrid as well depending on participants’ needs – if you are off campus and interested, please do sign up! Registration is open to all graduate students and postdocs through CampusGroups.

You can find information about our past bootcamps and workshops here.
