Writing Like You Mean It!

The Writing Center, located in Olin Library, Room 204, can help at all stages of the writing process — prewriting, drafting, revising and polishing. Students should bring a copy of the class assignment with them to the center.

We encourage students from all disciplines to make use of our services. While we often help students edit a nearly completed essay, we can also help those having trouble interpreting an assignment or getting started — students should feel free to come to The Writing Center even before they have written anything.

Tutors are available during scheduled hours. Students who need to make an appointment outside our regularly scheduled hours may call The Writing Center at(417) 873-7224 or Jill Burkindine at (417) 873-6928.
