Workshops

The Academic Resource Center holds workshops on a variety of topics, all of which are geared toward helping students enhance and improve their skills. We will organize a workshop at the request of any student group, professor, culture house director, coach, resident director, RA, or scholar-in-residence. We can customize a workshop to fit your needs or, if preferable, you can arrange to meet with one of our staff one-on-one for an individualized consultation. The following list provides examples of topic areas we have covered in the past:

  • Writing
    • Academic Integrity and Avoiding Plagiarism
    • Getting Fancy with Footnotes
    • Writing the Personal Statement
  • Public Speaking
    • PowerPoint and Beyond: Presentation Skills
    • Surviving Your Senior Thesis Defense
    • Speaking with Confidence (and Taming Stage Fright!)
