Wishing everybody a safe and restful break! See you in the spring semester! 🎄 ⛄️

Congratulations to the seven students who completed their master’s projects this summer/fall, and thank you to the five who presented last night! I was unable to get pictures of all the students presenting otherwise I would have shared them. I’ve had classes with all of the presenters and gotten to read the first drafts of some of these projects so it was very cool to see what they turned into! Thank you to these students, their advisors, and readers for their hard work! Wishing you all the best with future endeavors!

We are excited to launch a brand-new literary journal run by graduate students in the Creative Writing & Publishing program. Shadow Falls Review will publish the work of writers from across the country. This Tommie Give Day, all funds donated to the graduate English program will go directly to supporting our students as they endeavor to create a new writing venue. Link to Tommie Give Day in bio. Thank you for your generosity!

Tommie Give Day kicks off today and this year we have a special opportunity to donate to our brand new literary journal, run by our MA in Creative Writing & Publishing students. Shadow Falls Review will begin during the 2026-2027 school year and funds raised will go directly towards supporting students to work alongside the faculty editor as they endeavor to create a new and exciting writing venue.
