Writing and Research Center
In the Writing and Research Center, our goal is to help students through every step of the writing process. Writing specialists provide support focused on helping students build confidence and independence in completing their writing assignments.
Our services focus on providing instructional support at any point in the writing process ranging from pre-writing to revising a writing piece or citing sources. We also conduct instructional workshops on various topics related to writing.
