Summer Writing Workshop success!
Fifty-five incoming, first-year students from across Atlantic Canada spent two day learning about writing and academic life at university.
Student workshops included:
Listening to lectures and note-taking
Writing project outlining and development
Writing in the disciplines
Professor’s roundtable
Grammar and syntax
Feedback from students who attended was great.

”I learned valuable skills and I also made friends!”
”The lecture note-taking session was very informative and taught me stuff I didn’t know.”
”I now feel more prepared for SMU and university.”
”I learned a lot that I wouldn’t have thought about.”
