The Writing Center—in partnership with Wellness and Scott Centers and Libraries—welcomes you to a writing event to process the pandemic. Hosted by peer writing tutors, this event is designed to process painful memories, to support healing, and to create art. No prior experience with personal or reflective writing necessary! To register and learn more visit Go/WC

This workshop, led by Catharine Wright, Associate Professor of Writing and Rhetoric/GSFS will focus on writing assignments that delve into big ideas, that invite students to explore new genres, and/or that help students develop specific skills, with emphasis on ways to design and scaffold assignments to support student success. Faculty from several programs and departments, including the Writing and Rhetoric Program, will each briefly showcase an assignment with attention to course context as well as to how students might transfer what they learn to other contexts.

Please RSVP to sshapiro@middlebury.edu.

You don’t have to write alone! The Writing Center at Middlebury College will join other colleges and universities from around the globe in sponsoring a Write-In during the last weeks of the fall semester. The Write-In fosters a writing community by setting aside time and space for students to write together. A Peer Writing Tutor and a Research Librarian will be on hand to provide support.
