Celebrate the Week Of Writing by attending a Graduate Career Writing Workshop! Attend this event to hear about how to use your resume to craft a great cover letter, link your cover letter up to the job description, and frame your academic skills for potential employers right in that cover letter. Bring your resume and your cover letter questions! Hosted by Dr. Laura Roesch, Graduate Career Coach.

As a part of our Week of Writing (W.O.W), this is an event exclusively for English 1000 students where they can spend a 4-hour block to work on their papers with Writing Center tutors and research librarians on-site to help if/when writers need it. Food will be provided!

Join us for a day of writing during the Week Of Writing! We'll start at 9am, bring in lunch at 12pm, and continue writing until 3pm. Please pre-register, as the event will be capped at 18 students. Lunch will be provided to registrants. Graduate students at any stage, working on any project are welcome!

Drop-In Writing/Working Space for Grad Students
Separate from GradsWrite, the Writing Center, in collaboration with the MU Graduate School, will host weekly drop-in work sessions on Monday evenings for fall 2025. These sessions are open to any graduate student at Mizzou, working on any project, for whom a quiet space to work in community with other graduate students would be helpful. Coffee & snacks provided.

What they are: GradsWork Sessions are quiet spaces to bring current works in progress and to work in community with other graduate writers. We will invite participants to share goals at the beginning of the session, then work quietly and independently for the duration of the session. We will invite participants to report progress and/or future goals at the end of the session. All writers and all projects are welcome.

No registration necessary. Please feel free to drop-in!

Please note: GradsWork sessions are quiet spaces to work in community with other graduate writers; no general writing instruction will be provided at the sessions.
