LEADERSHIP LAB: The Craft of Writing Effectively

Video Overview & Insights

Do you worry about the effectiveness of your writing style? As emerging scholars, perfecting the craft of writing is an essential component of developing as graduate students, and yet resources for honing these skills are largely under utilized. Larry McEnerney, Director of the University of Chicago's Writing Program, led this session in an effort to communicate helpful rules, skills, and resources that are available to graduate students interested in further developing their writing style.

20 mins in and this has to be one of the most valuable videos on the internet!! I want to be in your class so bad -- My answer when you asked about horizontal writing and vertical reading was "friction" -- what is the first thing they feel? Friction, slowness, hard to read.
