Registration Information & Schedule

Hello Sisters, SOTA presents our Inaugural Writing Symposium April 10-13, 2008.

This idea came from your requests in the membership survey as a way to network, share writing and research interests, work toward collaborative publications and to assist with dissertation proposals. Please mark your calendars and visit our website for registration materials.

The Sisters of the Academy Writing Retreat is designed to assist participants with writing endeavors—including dissertations, manuscripts, reports, or book chapters.

Who should participate in the Retreat?

  • Individuals who need motivation, support, or writing space for current projects
  • Writing teams needing the space, time, and support to advance a current joint project
  • Administrators & faculty interested in collaborative research opportunities

What should you expect from the Retreat?

  • Based on similar research interests, you will be placed in a writing circle with 3-4 other individuals.
  • Each group member will provide feedback, motivation, and support with the assistance of a facilitator, prior to attending the retreat.
  • During the April retreat weekend, you will continue and/or complete your writing projects, with the support and motivation of your writing circle members and all other retreat attendees.
  • Expect a “process and product driven weekend with a networking twist.”
