Workshops
The Graduate College is offering the Write Place, every Wednesday through May 1 for graduate students as a supportive space to work on their research and be part of an accountability group. The sessions will be from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. in Suite 314 of the University Library. Students are welcome to join whenever they are able!
Lecturing is a necessary component for delivering course content, but how can you keep students engaged during a lecture? In this session, we will discuss strategies for creating lectures that support student learning and keep your audience interested. Please register for our workshop here!

The Graduate College is committed to helping you succeed. We’re excited to offer three Research Writing Retreats for Graduate Students. These retreats provide you with a distraction-free weekend so you can focus on your writing.
The Research Writing Retreats provide:
- A quiet space with desktop computers (or you can bring your own laptop).
- Structured time to write.
- Opportunities to schedule statistical consulting appointments leading up to the weekend (only available for Kent State students).
- Meals throughout the days of attendance, in addition to lots of coffee and tea.
- The opportunity to meet other students working on their writing.
- The opportunity to make connections for developing writing and support groups outside of the retreat.
- Resource materials related to research and writing.
Our Spring retreat will take place on Friday, February 10 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. with breakfast, lunch, and dinner provided, and Saturday, February 11 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with breakfast and lunch provided.
