Writing Center

The Center provides this support through individual and group peer tutoring in writing across the curriculum at all levels for all students; faculty and curriculum development via workshops, lectures, classroom visits, and consultations on writing pedagogy and assessment; instructional materials for faculty and students; long-term individualized tutoring for students needing substantive help with writing; and other support for the Writing Across the Curriculum program as needed.
Writing Conferences
During the conference, your tutor will examine the structural features of your draft: thesis, organization, and development of your argument. The tutor also will identify errors in grammar, mechanics, and style and work with you to revise them.
