Saturday Write-In, February 2024

This program helps maintain or reinforce solid writing practices and focus. Providing the “break talks” are very helpful, reminding all of us how to break things down and pace.

Summer Destination Writing Retreat

Spend three days in comfort and beautiful scenery while you make progress on your writing project. This summer's Destination Writing Retreat will be announced during the spring semester. 

 

NSF GRFP (National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship) Working Group

If you are a STEM student who is a rising senior, rising first- or rising second-year graduate student and are planning on applying for the NSF GRFP fellowship in the fall, this group is for you.

This group will meet 2 times per month in June, July, and August. 
Once the semester begins, we will meet at least once per week in September and October.

The group works as both accountability partners and peer reviewers. We will discuss application expectations and will help each other during the drafting process.

Meeting time, place, and venue (i.e., f2f or virtual) will be determined by the group members.

Interested in joining this group? Contact Dr. Yvonne Lee at yrl219@lehigh.edu.

I really enjoyed getting to hear from other graduate students on where they are at in their programs and enjoyed feeling productive and meeting my goals.
