We invited faculty to attend a full day writing retreat on the Gainesville Campus. Dr. Christine Tulley, Director of the Master of Arts in Rhetoric and Writing at The University of Findlay, offered insight and guidance on faculty writing habits and moving projects forward. This retreat offered breakout sessions on other topics related to scholarly writing.
This day was supported by the UNG Foundation and the Office of Research and Engagement. The Center for Teaching, Learning, and Leadership offers these professional development opportunities to advance faculty careers and productivity. This event was organized and facilitated by Michael Rifenburg, CTLL Senior Faculty Fellow for Scholarly Writing.
