Write-ins

GWC Write-ins

 Join us for write-ins on July 18 and July 25.


Work alongside peers and encourage each other as you set and meet your writing goals. Relax and concentrate in the luxury of the historic Del Monte Hotel's lobby (aka the Quarterdeck of Herrmann Hall). Grab a seat by the fireplace or sit in front of the large bay window.


Fridays 1000–1430
​​​​​The Quarterdeck, Herrmann Hall

Write-ins give NPS students time to make real progress on a paper or thesis. GWC writing instructors and DKL are on hand to answer writing or research questions on the spot. Conquer writer's block and feel better heading into your weekend! 

No appointment required—come for all or part of the time. Don't forget your laptop! See typical schedule below.


Students are telling us: Write-ins work!

"Write-ins were single-handedly the best asset I found in my first quarter."

"The write-ins have been instrumental in . . . transitioning from the operating forces to completing academic requirements."

“Library and writing resources are second to none!â€

"Write-ins provided motivation to start, continue, and complete my assignments."
