Jill Gladstein and her crew at the Swarthmore College Writing Center share an update about the #IntlWrtIn initiative!

Cram Jam”, “Writers’ Block Party”, or “Final Paper Countdown”– International Write-In events may go by many names, but all share one goal: to unite student writers to remind them that they aren’t alone with their writing.

After a successful first run in December that saw over 1000 students come together on 27 college campuses and across social media for a week of writing events, the Spring 2015 International Write-In has become even bigger, with 44 colleges and universities participating between April 24 and May 5. This semester’s group includes a variety of institutions spanning Community Colleges, SLACs, HBCUs, and R1s, each providing writers with a space to come together to write. Participants have been connecting via Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram with #IntlWriteIn, and will continue to do so throughout the event. Swarthmore College’s Writing Associates Program is proud to have helped sponsor the Spring 2015 International Write-In by connecting participating colleges and universities online. For more information, please check out the International Write-In webpage.
