University of Iowa Writing University

The Writing University Web pages provide a focused description of the University of Iowa’s many writing programs and offer routinely updated information on upcoming programs, events, and expected visitors.  Use it as a gateway to explore opportunities for speakers, workshops, and conferences that you want to develop or events and visitors on whom you might piggyback.

You can safely assume that University faculty and staff are interested in books, reading, and writing, and are prepared to speak or facilitate discussion on subjects related to their scholarly or professional specialties. Contact them or their programs directly about your program needs. Faculty, staff, and program associates can often recommend qualified graduate students who may be even more available than they can be.

Most faculty and staff will expect to be reimbursed for direct travel expenses; a few may be able to charge expenses to their own budget. Some faculty and staff will expect or require an honorarium.
