Write/Study/Focus with us this spring

What is the Write/Study/Focus with us program? 

Join us at the Student Learning Commons throughout the spring 2025 semester for focused writing or studying sessions on all three campuses. An SLC Writing or Learning Services Coordinator will be there as your "body double,"  available for quick questions and support during the focused work time.

Body doubling is a productivity strategy where working with someone helps boost focus and accountability.

How does it work? 

Focusing on work tasks alongside others is more motivating than working alone! What's more, working alongside writing/learning mentors makes it fast and easy to ask questions and get support. 

Sign up

To increase your accountability, you can sign up to attend sessions that work with your schedule (you'll be creating a writing/studying schedule for yourself at the same time!)

Didn't sign up? No problem! Drop in anytime and stay for as long as you want. These sessions are designed to be informal and flexible.
