The Ohio State Center for Feminist Research, Education and Engagement (FREE Center) is pleased to announce that the Spring Writing Retreat for Graduate Students will take place April 23 and 24 at the Research Commons in the 18th Avenue Library.
Building on the success of previous retreats, the spring event offers another opportunity for graduate students engaged in feminist scholarship to advance in their academic writing. The Spring Writing Retreat provides a quiet space to work, structured writing time, light breakfast and a catered lunch, and an encouraging, motivating community. All participants should be engaged in feminist scholarship and working on academic writing projects (doctoral dissertation, master’s thesis, article/book chapter, etc.).
Registration is required and can be completed here. The deadline to register is Wednesday, April 16. Limited spots are available.
If you have any questions, please contact the FREE Center at free@osu.edu.
