A Soggy yet Successful Writing Retreat
Last Updated on Wednesday, 13 October 2010 14:17
A little (okay, a lot of) rain didn’t stop GW’s annual senior college essay-writing retreat from being a big success. Since 2005, GW has taken seniors to the shores of Lake Anna, VA, for this innovative and ground-breaking program. In the course of two days, seniors take classes, receive one-on-one help, and engage in guided activities on their way to producing a complete, ready-to-go personal statement for their college applications. This year’s version of the retreat was the first time in six years that it rained, but that didn’t stop students from enjoying that natural (if soggy) environment and writing some fantastic essays.
