CTL Writing Retreat

This event is open to ALL members of the Baruch community: full-time and part-time faculty, graduate students, and staff.

The 2018-23 Baruch College Strategic Plan highlights the value of research in enriching the classroom experience for both teachers and students, and pledges to support innovative research, scholarship, and creative inquiry at the College. In the spirit of this pledge, the CTL will offer a two-day writing retreat for members of the Baruch community to focus on their research, writing, and creative work in a collegial environment.

On June 4 and 5, the CTL will provide a quiet space to write; a nourishing lunch; a separate space to take breaks, network, and eat; and outlets for charging devices. Participants will get dedicated time over one or two full days to work in a distraction-free, collegial environment. Each afternoon after lunch, there will be an optional breakout activity related to writing, such as combating writer’s block or soliciting and giving feedback, that participants may find useful in their own work as well as in the classroom.

Jump start that new chapter, write that book proposal, or finish editing that article that has been languishing on your desktop. Give yourself the gift of time to write.
