DeVry Writing Center: LIVE Events and Recordings

Events, webinars, and workshops, oh, my!

We do best in community. Let's get together! 

The DeVry Writing CenterFirst Year Student Success program, and the DeVry Library all offer fast, fun, and functional events. See the lists below. You can click the links below or in the calendar to view and register for any event. Don't miss it:  Check your time zone and convert to Central Time here.

Writers' Room Hangouts 

Regardless of what you are writing or working on, you may want company to keep you focused and in community. "Body-doubling" sounds like sci-fi, but working in the same space with others can significantly boost productivity, especially for those with ADHD! Hangouts also provide meeting space and drop-in tutoring opportunities!

Hangouts follow a simple approach:

  • No appointments or registration needed! Drop in whenever the room is open (see schedule below).
  • Participants may communicate in the chat, but the main room is a safe, quiet workspace.

  • Participants are welcome to go to a table (breakout room) to meet with friends, class groups, or a professor.

  • A writing expert is always available to provide individual tutoring assistance.
