Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Scholar Quiet Writing Space

What is this?

The Judith Anderson Herbert Writing Center and the Graduate School have partnered to support graduate student writers during Summer 2026. The Herbert Writing Center in HSS 212 will be open as a quiet writing space for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars to work comfortably and productively in a relaxed and welcoming environment. Free snacks and drinks will be available, compliments of the Graduate School. Professional writing consultants will be available for one-on-one consultations with writers, both online via UTK.MyWCOnline.com and in-person in HSS 212 during certain hours each day. Additional consultations on thesis/dissertation formatting and a workshop on key forms and deadlines, led by Graduate School staff, will be offered.
