ICS Writing Group
Since 1997, the ICS Writing group has met regularly to respond to research writing of all kinds as well as trends in research and publishing. Formed by the Director and a group of faculty, this group is composed mostly of professionally young and mid-career faculty. Meeting every three to four weeks, the group comments on a work-in-progress from one of the participating members. By bringing together faculty from across campus and across disciplines, the Writing Group offers a network for supporting research and forming collegial relationships.
The ICS Writing Group will be on sabbatical for the 2009-2010 academic year.

The ICS Graduate Student Writing Group meets regularly to discuss, workshop, respond to, and encourage graduate student research projects. The Group is composed of MA and PhD students, and is guided, facilitated, and mentored by a tenured faculty member. In the 2008-09 academic year, Radhika Gajjala (Interpersonal Communications) took on that role, and will continue to do so in 2009-10. Meeting every three to four weeks, the Group comments on a work-in-progress from one of the participating members. By bringing together selected graduate students from across campus and across disciplines, the ICS Graduate Student Writing Group offers a network for supporting research and forming collegial and peer-mentoring relationships, assisting in the professionalization of our graduate student body in order to make them more competitive in the job market. Additionally, the group conducts discussions via a Facebook group.
