    Can I require my students to visit the Writing Center? 

    是的. But please explain to students what the Writing Center is and does before requiring 访问. If you would like to require all students in your course to visit the writing center, please email us at writingcenter@奇怪的人.edu to arrange the best possible experience for you and your students.


    How do I know if my student visited the Writing Center?

    If the student asks us to notify you, we send verification to your email with a description of what the student wanted to work on and how the session progressed. 如果你不知道 want to receive email notifications, we suggest you ask the student to request a copy of their session summary be sent to their email. From there, they can print the notification and attach it to their paper. 

    Writing Center visits are confidential. If a student does not request to share their visit’s details, we respect their choice and will not discuss their visit to the Writing Center.


    Do Writing Center Consultants correct grammar? 

    We do not copyedit students' work for them. We do, however, provide students with guidance on grammar rules and proofreading strategies to improve their writing. So, yes, if a student has sentence-level issues, please suggest they visit the Writing Center, but do not expect a grammatically perfect paper after one session. 


    But can the Writing Center really help my students with my specific kind of writing and assignments? 

    是的! Writing Center Consultants are trained to work with a variety of genres from multiple disciplines.  We do not strive to be content experts; rather, we consider ourselves writing experts. Also, Writing Center Consultants come from a variety of backgrounds, levels, majors, and minors. 

    But if there's something we can do to better assist you with your students or assignments, please let us know!
