And the best part, you don’t need to have a graduate program to participate—just enthusiasm and passion for your field and working with students.

The benefits of working with grad students are way too many for us to list, but here are a few key ones….

Writing Resource For Your Students

Looking for a resource to help your graduate or undergraduate students enhance their writing skills? Invite them to the free Open Collaborative Writing Studio every Thursday from 2-4pm in MLIB 459. Hosted by Carson Medley, Thesis Editor and Advisor for the Office of Graduate Studies, this collaborative environment for students focuses on the deliberate practice of writing by setting SMART goals (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time bound). Collaborative writing extinguishes feelings of being alone and helps students communicate in an academic language unique to their discipline.

Students do not need to sign-up or register in advance and it is open to all ability levels. Consider sharing the link above with interested students. Contact Carson Medley at 898-5392 or cmedley@csuchico.edu with questions.
