Each year, the Department of Writing and Rhetoric hosts events across campus to celebrate NCTE’s National Day on Writing. Students participate in activities that allow them to reflect on writing they’ve done in the past and to do some additional writing of their own.
The WAC Program has coordinated National Day on Writing events over the years, offering a variety of activites and themes so students can produce writing that they are passionate about during the celebrations. To learn more about past events, feel free to browse our archives:
