For Parents & Boosters

In order for students to achieve maximum success in the department, it's important for parents to become involved in department activities. Our parent booster organization, The Writers’ Guild, focuses on maximizing student experience through volunteer opportunities and fundraising events.

The Creative Writing department provides parents with many unique opportunities. We understand life is busy, so we try to make sure that projects vary in time and level of commitment. The support of our parent volunteers is an essential part of our department’s success.
