How I Write: The Versatile Scholar, Writing Beyond the Academy

How can research in the humanities and social sciences make a difference, both inside and outside the university?  How can PhD students use their skills and experience to write for different audiences?  Join us for a panel discussion with Jacqueline Looney, Senior Associate Dean for Graduate Programs and Associate Vice Provost for Academic Diversity; Ed Balleisen, Vice Provost for Interdisciplinary Studies; and Eladio Bobadilla, PhD candidate in history. They'll discuss their writing lives, the challenges and opportunities of writing outside the academy, and why writing matters.

This conversation is co-sponsored by the Faculty Write Program, The Graduate School, Duke University Libraries and the Forum for Scholars and Publics and is part of the How I Write series at Duke.  

Light lunch served at 11:15. Please RSVP here.
