Writing Center
The Writing Center is a place where students can spend time practicing their writing skills in a stress-free environment and receive feedback on their writing and research assignments. Topics may cover any step of the writing process, from prewriting to proofreading. The Center is open for any student to visit face-to-face or virtually during regular scheduled office hours, or a student may schedule a visit to guarantee a consultation. Students are encouraged to bring a copy of their draft and their willingness to make changes!
