Writing Resource Center
Individual tutoring on writing and study skills, handouts, some course syllabi and model student papers, and books on improving writing, reading, study skills, and time management are available to students at the Writing Resource Center, located on the first floor of the Library, by the Circulation Desk. Networked IBM-compatible word processors are available in the adjacent computer labs, with priority reserved for writing and revising papers. Upon request, the Center finds student content tutors to help students with their course material. The Center facilitates arrangements for students with documented special learning needs, such as ordering course books on tape.
The Director, the Writing Associate, and student writing tutors are available by appointment, to discuss students’ writing at any stage of the process, and to give suggestions on improving writing and study skills. Student tutors are selected on the recommendation of the faculty as good writers and good students, and they are trained to help other students improve their writing and study skills without doing their work for them. The Writing Resource Center staff does not proofread, edit, rewrite papers or judge the accuracy of the content of a paper.
Twice a year, the Center offers a two-block adjunct course on improving writing: INT 501 Practice in Writing (1/4 credit), which meets weekly after regular class hours. Students in the course have six individual writing tutorials. Students register by contacting the Center no later than the block before the course begins.
