University Services for Students
Writing Center

   Whether you are a freshman taking E110 or a graduate student
writing a dissertation, the Writing Center can help improve your
writing skills. We will not proofread or edit your papers, but our
instructors teach you to revise and edit your own papers. We work with
you on essay skills such as focus, organization, and style; sentence
level skills such as syntax and diction; and mechanics such as
spelling and punctuation. E110 essays, lab reports, rsums, graduate
school application essays, term papers, theses, dissertations, and any
other academic writing may all be dealt with. In addition, the Writing
Center offers workshops upon request in such aspects of writing as
term papers, documentation, punctuation, and essay exams. Students
whose native language is not English can receive help in both spoken
and written English from experienced staff members.
