The Center for Writing and Communication is a combined writing and speaking center that offers free, one-on-one consultations with a trained staff comprised of graduate students from the departments of English and Communication.

Whether your student is working on a paper, presentation, or speech, the Center can help them brainstorm topics, develop a thesis, build their argument, help with research, organize their writing, develop editing strategies, and implement standard citation conventions. If they are delivering a speech, they can also practice in the presentation studio.

Faculty members often make time during the week to be available for students outside of the classroom. This is known as ‘office hours’. Office hours allow your student to meet one-on-one with faculty to ask questions or express concerns.

Attending office hours and getting to know faculty can also offer additional opportunities, like research projects or internships.
