Event: Dartmouth Summer Seminar for Writing Research: news for 2024 and 2025

Colleagues,

This is the time of year when usually the Summer Seminar leadership distributes its call for applications for the following summer’s program. We are instead circulating this brief update.

We have learned that, going forward, our Dartmouth site can no longer accommodate our program with conditions that are conducive to program participants’ needs and success. Dartmouth has—like many institutions—seen difficult changes in structure and support that have changed the way they host summer programs that are not for the student body.

In 2024 we will be holding a new event, 1 week long, that will address a new area of scholarly work: publication of empirical (qualitative and quantitative) research on writing and language. It will be in a different location. Stay tuned for an announcement later this fall about the details of this offering and its application cycle.

We will return to the 2-week Summer Seminar for Writing Research in the summer of 2025, and will announce its site and program this coming spring.
Please feel free to write with any questions to composition.research.seminar

Thank you!

The Dartmouth Summer Seminar team
