WHAT'S NEW in the DWC?

Join the Writer's Room Hangouts

This drop-in Engageli room is a place to get stuff done in the quiet company of others. Sounds like the dreaded high school study hall or quiet library workspace, but "body doubling" really helps people stay focused while offering support. There will always be at least one professor who can help with general tutoring and any communication needs. Tables will be used for tutoring, group meetings, and more.

Go to the LIVE Events page for the Hangout schedule and the link to join the fun!
While you're there, check out the many other workshop opportunities.
