Submission Guidelines Poetic Journeys invites UConn students, faculty, and staff to submit poems for consideration for publication in our 2025–2026 series. The deadline for 2025–2026 submissions will be Wednesday, October 1, 2025. The poems that work best for Poetic Journeys are short—no longer than eight lines. If you would like to submit a longer poem, you may suggest an excerpt that stands on its own by highlighting the lines within the Word document. Submissions may be emailed as Word documents to: luisana.duarte_armendariz@uconn.edu (mailto:luisana.duarte_armendariz@uconn.edu) with "Poetic Journeys" in the subject line. You may submit up to three poems. Please be sure to include the following information for each poet: —Full name —University affiliation —Contact info (address, phone) —Email address Winners will be announced late in the fall semester of 2025.   Poetic Journeys was developed by the Creative Writing Program at the University of Connecticut-Storrs campus and inspired by the New York MTA's Poetry in Motion series, itself inspired by London's Poems on the Underground. Poetic Journeys features poems written by UConn students, faculty, and staff on placards designed by students in the University's Design Center. Poetic Journeys began in the Fall of 2000, and subsequent series have been published annually. PoeticJourneys grants writers and designers a unique collaborative experience. It offers the campus community and visitors a poetic respite from their busy days, and an opportunity, each time they board a bus, to embark on a different kind of journey. Program sponsors include the Creative Writing Program, the UConn Design Center, the Aetna Chair of Writing, the Barnes & Noble Bookstore, and UConn Transportation.

This course consists of eight online modules that the student can complete independently. An instructor will meet virtually with the students weekly to review each module topic and answer questions. Expect to spend study time reviewing each module topic outside of the review class. A student who completes all the modules, works through the quizzes, and studies the resource materials independently should be able to pass both the written and oral state exam successfully.

Many graduate students and professors have a "sink or swim" experience transitioning to teaching larger/lecture classes and giving job talks or conference papers. Most never took public speaking, nor learned elements of effective vocal, nonverbal, or visual communication. Sadly, these deficiencies in delivery can overshadow subject matter expertise and sound scholarship in public speaking contexts, costing credibility. Participants will learn how to implement these principles and practices in the preparation and execution of online, PowerPoint, and extemporaneous presentations, and will have the opportunity to share their slides or recordings in advance for critique. INSTRUCTOR: Abram Trosky (Professor of Applied Communication at Army War College). Please register by Sunday, September 28th. Interested in being notified of upcoming webinars?
