Good Day Everyone!

         We will resume our Sit N Write workshops officially starting September 5, 2025, at 9:30 AM.  To help ensure that the needs of participants are met, we ask that you complete our Fall 2025 intake form: https://forms.office.com/r/057ekKfiJz.  We would appreciate receiving responses by Noon September 3, 2025.  Please see attached flyer for sharing.  

As a refresher, Sit N Write is a campus community-based initiative that seeks to foster a safe bold writing and research accountability space for faculty, staff, and advanced graduate students.  We look forward to supporting one another in developing and completing projects that advance the mission of Queens College and positively impact our classrooms.

Should you have any questions about Sit N Write, please feel free to email me at : nduncan@qc.cuny.edu .

Sincerely,

Nat Duncan
