Dose of Poetry is Georgian Court University’s annual celebration, sponsored by the English Department and the SMJC Library. Created in 2016 by Christine Marie Stevenson, this program brings together English Department Faculty and members of the GCU Community to collaborate on several interactive presentations throughout the month. Dose of Poetry encourages the discussion of poets, old and new, the spirit of creativity, and the sharing of our own creations.
