Summer Programming
Write Together at Home
Write Together at Home: June 2023 Graduate Writing Program provides graduate and professional students and postdocs with community, structure, and resources to support their writing. This program is designed to kick-start summer writing practice during the month of June, as well as to help establish writing practices and peer writing networks that will sustain writing throughout the summer.
Cornell Writing Centers
During the summer, the Cornell Writing Centers offers tutoring services during Cornell's 6-week summer session. The CWC supports all students and alum on any kind of writing project at any stage of the drafting process. Tutors (trained graduate students) serve as responsive listeners and readers who can address questions about the writing process or about particular pieces of writing. They can also consider questions of confidence, critical reading, analytic thought, organization and imagination, as well as help identify patterns of error at the sentence or paragraph-level.
