Please share with the ABD students in your department!
The UCLA Center for the Study of Women (CSW) invites applicants for the 2014 Dissertation Writing Retreat to take place on the weekend of June 20st to 22rd. These intensive “lock-in” writing retreats have proven to be a great success for those preparing, outlining, beginning, or finishing their dissertations. Each writing day begins at 9 am and ends at 5:30 pm. We provide food, a quiet room, and a room for eating and socializing.
We have twenty spaces available and they fill up quickly. In order to best facilitate this event, we ask that you send an email to CSW ([log in to unmask]) no later than Thursday, May 24th, 2014 with the following information:
Name, Department, Confirmation of ABD Status (date prospectus defended), your writing goal for the weekend, and which days of the retreat you can attend.
Please put “CSW Dissertation Writing Retreat (YOUR LAST NAME)” in the subject heading. We will announce acceptances on Friday, May 31st via email.
We have provided a tentative schedule below. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
All the very best,
Kathleen A. McHugh, Director
UCLA Center for the Study of Women
