What to Bring to the DH**

  • Computer
  • Power Strip  for your computer (there are never enough wall outlets for everyone's computers.)
  • Casual clothing for writing (be prepared for warm and cool temperatures, and if your roommates want the room to be cool, you might want something warm to put on while you are writing)**
  • Exercise clothing (for walking or running)**
  • A dressy-casual outfit to wear for our opening and closing dinners (this doesn’t have to be fancy, but you might want something nicer than sweats or jeans, for example)**
  • Slippers or something for your feet during writing**
  • Cell phone
    • Hard copy of the draft that you will be working on.

    • Jumpdrive to transfer your files when you need to print.
    • Camera (some participants want to remember the weekend with pictures)**
    • Ipod, CD player if you like to listen to music while you work with ear phones
    • Books and articles necessary for your writing project
    • Style sheet you will be using for your project--MLA, APA, etc.
    • Your university’s guidelines/templates for writing dissertations (if you are working on your dissertation)

    • ** These items are for DH when it is not being held on campus.
