SUBR Public Administration

Tonight’s SUMPAA Graduate Writing Skills Workshop was exactly what our students needed. Shoutout to Dr. Jarrett Landor-Ngemi for delivering a sharp, practical, and downright energizing session. Our master’s and doctoral students packed out Higgins Rm 111, laptops open and ready to level up.

We dug into:
📝 The Paragraph Problem (yes… the transition struggle is real)
📚 Escaping the Literature Review Trap
🎯 Writing with Precision and Purpose
🔗 Alignment from Problem → Purpose → RQs → Theory
📖 Surviving APA Fatigue (Citation Anxiety is a real diagnosis at this point)

Huge thank you to everyone who showed up, asked questions, shared experiences, and supported each other. This is what a thriving graduate community looks like.

More workshops coming soon — we’re building a culture where our students finish strong, write confidently, and publish boldly.

There are some great things happening here at the Nelson Mandela College of Public Policy. Come be a part of greatness. 💛💙
