The Organization of Creative Writing hatched from the mind of Tony Christopher, Grand Exalted Poobah, and Tim Blekicki, Vice President, who conspired with Faculty Advisor Brian Railsback in October of 2000 to bring the monster to life. Once every week or so, the organization confers for readings of individual creative writing endeavors and constructive workshops thereof. Reading selections from favorite published writers is also encouraged. The primary purpose of the club is to provide an encouraging and constructive environment for creative writers to share their work.

Aside from co-hosting the Poetry Slams, the organization participates in the Undergraduate Research Expo. They also take off-campus trips to read poetry in various scenic places. Whether they’re on a raft floating down a river, or on the side of Whiteside Mountain, the group takes time out to read favorite selections of poetry.
