Dissertation On The Lake (DOTL) is a writing retreat held at Elbow Lake Environmental Education Centre (approx. 30 minutes north of Kingston). Offered by the SGSPA, the retreat provides graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with the opportunity to write in a relaxing and inspiring environment.

Each day will be loosely structured around two writing sessions: three hours in the morning and three hours in the afternoon (you can always write for longer). While writing is the primary focus, there will also be opportunities for relaxation including swimming, canoeing and hiking.
