Events
We're committed to creating and supporting a culture of writing at Clemson. Throughout the year, we host workshops and events about writing to help Tiger Writers at all levels across campus.
All events are free and take place at the Clemson Writing Lab, on the third floor of Cooper Library.
Below is our calendar of events and short descriptions of these offerings.
