The Writing Center’s writing groups offer weekly time for student writers to devote to working on their dissertations, theses, or other significant writing projects in a supportive environment. Benefits to participating in the Writing Center’s writing group program include access to structured time to facilitate progress on their writing projects, advice from group leaders, and the company of a community of supportive peers. Participants will see the most benefits if they commit to the group at the beginning of the semester and attend every meeting. Upon registration, participants will receive additional details, including a link for meeting online, if applicable.
Winter 2026 Writing Group: Writing Together
A Writing Group For All UD Graduate Students
Fridays 1-3pm, beginning January 2, 2026
This writing group will meet weekly on Zoom for writers who want the accountability and camaraderie of writing together. The group will not feature a common reader or weekly presentations, although if participants are interested in short discussions of writing topics, that is a possibility. Participants in this group should expect to spend most of the 2hr block working on their own writing projects, with brief check-ins at the start and close of each session. Register to receive the zoom link and further information from the group leader.
Winter 2026 Writing Group: Senior Thesis Squad
Calling all senior thesis writers! The UD Writing Center will continue to host a weekly writing group specifically for undergraduate students working on senior thesis projects. This group is ideal for students who want to make steady progress on their thesis, no matter where they’re at in the process of developing their project. While this group does not focus on writing instruction and peer review, those activities can be added based on participant interest.
During the winter session, our group will meet online via Zoom on Wednesday mornings, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., January 7, 14, 21 and 28.
Students who participate in writing groups report the most benefits when they attend regularly, so please plan to attend weekly.
