June Writing Retreat: part of the CTL Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) initiative

Jumpstart 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. 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 the Baruch’s full-time and part-time faculty, graduate students, and staff. This is an chance for the Baruch community to focus on their research, writing, and creative work in a collegial environment. Participants will get dedicated time over one or two full days to work in a distraction-free environment. Each afternoon there will be an optional breakout activity. The CTL will offer a quiet space to write; collegiality; coffee; a nourishing lunch; a separate space to take breaks, network, and eat.  For more information, please contact Cheryl Smith at cheryl.smith@baruch.cuny.edu.
