Good morning, Deltans!

An early happy Thanksgiving to you all because there will not be a newsletter next week. It's hard to believe that the semester is almost over. I hope you all enjoy your break and best of luck on finals! Read below to find out what's happening this week, what's not happening next week, and some contests you can take advantage of your time off to submit to.
Best,
Julian Kindred

First Peoples Reading
Join us Thursday, Nov. 19 in Evans 317 at 2 p.m. to celebrate the writings of Native Americans/First Peoples.  This should be a chance to hear from some of the Native American students here in the English department.

No Writer’s Forum or Write-In over the Thanksgiving Break
Enjoy your turkey and your family and whatever isolated peace you can grab for writing over the upcoming holidays. There will be no Writer’s Forum on Wednesday the 25 or Write-In on Saturday the 28. The Writer's Forum will still meet this Wednesday (18th) in Evans 460 at 5:30.
