November 9th Workshop: "An Evening of Conversation and Connections"

On Friday, November 9th, we at the Ohio University Appalachian Writing Project will be hosting the first of our non-summer events that are intended for our First Summer Institute Fellows. This workshop, which we are calling "An Evening of Conversation and Connections," will be shorter than most and held from 5:30-7:30 pm in our new and spacious Faculty Commons, third floor of Alden Library, where the Center for Writing Excellence and the Appalachian Writing Project are not located.

We will hold an event, gathering, or workshop once per season, so expect an update in the coming months on winter and spring plans.

On November 9th, we hope to catch up, share pedagogical strategies, collectively chart where we want our future workshops to head, and perhaps do a little writing on our own (which you probably saw coming!). We will have appetizers and we hope the evening will feel more informal than a usual daytime workshop in a classroom proper.

After 5 pm, you may park in campus lots that are marked Purple and/or Dark Green. We recommend lot #84 beside Clippinger Hall on University Terrace (see http://www.ohiou.edu/athens/parking/ for a parking map), but you have many options. The Clippinger lot is the one that most of you parked in this past summer.

If you can join us on November 9th, RSVP to Nathan Shepley at ns327905@ohio.edu by October 18th. If you have questions about this or other workshops, feel free to contact Nathan at the email address above or contact the AWP generally (awp@ohio.edu).

Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you again!
