DU Writing in Community

Writing for graduate students can be isolating and it is often difficult to get motivated. The Sistah Network is sponsoring the "DU Writing In Community" Retreat for DU Graduate Students on Friday, April 24, 2026, 2 - 6pm in Engineering and Computer Science (ECS) 410. This FREE event is open to all DU graduate students providing a collaborative, productive, and positive writing environment. Late lunch will be served.

This is meant to be a relaxed environment and focused time for DU graduate scholars from various departments to work on their writing project of choice together. Bring your laptop, headphones and any materials you will need to work on your project and select your space to work. We hope to develop a strong, supportive writing community dedicated to graduate scholarship and academic success!

We will also have 20-minute consultations for scholars to meet with a faculty/PhD who volunteer to provide writing feedback or advice on your project.
RSVP to attend the workshop here by Tuesday, April 21:

If you are able to serve as a writing consultant, RSVP, even if you can only participate for 1 hour. Please share widely with other faculty in your department who would enjoy this experience! All faculty willing to engage with graduate students are welcome to participate! Please RSVP.

The Sistah Network engages those with an interest in the topic of the psychological, social, and emotional success of Black women in DU graduate programs. Network meetings and lunch occur monthly, providing members with space for academic and professional development. All are welcome.
