Welcome to Inklings, an English social club. Eat snacks. Make friends!
Meet and hang out with your English Department peers and get to know others across the Fort Collins English community. Our rotating schedule of activities will give you a chance to share your ideas and your work with a group that can relate. We organize hangout nights, game nights, snacks, special guests, parties, a finals study event, and conversation about common interests.
These weekly gatherings create community, and they provide our friends with a space for reaching out to one another in celebration of scholarship and creativity. We also provide snacks!
No need to RSVP, just show up. Inklings is free and open to anyone interested. Scroll down for our events calendar, and we'll see you Tuesdays.
Questions? Reach out to new President Bear Atwood at Bear.Atwood@colostate.edu
