Plan to visit The Writing Center well before your paper is due. Writing improves with careful reading and revision; ideally, this should occur throughout the writing process, not only on the afternoon or evening before an assignment must be turned in.
The Writing Center operates on a drop-in basis (first-come, first-serve) or through online reservations. Consultants are only available during scheduled afternoon and evening hours.
