Grad+ Seminar Series FAQs

The online seminar is about dissertation writing tailored to personality and values. We meet each week on Zoom. We focus on the theme of Mastering the Four-Hour Productivity Block. We are devoted to accountability, where each participant reports on their progress and goals for the week (e.g., “This week I’m going to finish the outline for Chapter 3.”) 

There are many dates offered because we hold seminars via Zoom every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Participants attend one seminar online every week. Consistent attendance is crucial for accountability because you have to show up and report to your peers how your progress looks. Since people try to attend the same seminar each week, we grow the community through continued contact.

In addition to the seminars, drop-ins are welcome at the Write-Ins.
