Womxn of Color Initiatives (WOCI) Writing Retreat
October 18, 2024 - October 20, 2024
The Womxn of Color Initiatives (WOCI) at Michigan State University is pleased to announce a 3-day, 2-night “glamping” writing retreat intended to advance dissertation/degree completion amongst womxn of color graduate students and dissertation/degree completion amongst graduate students whose scholarship aligns with the overall mission and purpose of WOCI. The retreat will be held October 18-20, 2024.
Space is limited and the review committee will prioritize students who are already writing their dissertation and whose advisors confirm that they are within one year of completion. While the majority of participants will be doctoral students, early career faculty are encouraged to apply. The review committee will also strive to ensure disciplinary/college diversity.
Note about accommodations and safety:
Participants will lodge with one other participant in a shared dorm room within Pretty Lake Camp’s Retreat Center. Additionally, the Retreat Center has two communal restrooms and shared shower facilities.
The WOCI is excited to host you for a shared bonding experience as we work toward our academic and professional goals! If you have any questions, email the WOCI Team at msu.woci@msu.edu.
