Writing Center Etiquette:

  • Bring two copies of your paper . . . this will make it easier to follow along with your tutor.
  • Please DO NOT bring your paper on a disk or a laptop.
  • Remember to bring a copy of your assignment/rubric.
  • Turn off cell phones, pagers, etc. before entering the writing center.
  • If you have a paper more than 7 pages long, please call ahead and ask for two consecutive appointment slots.
  • Remember, we are a writing center, not a fix-it shop, so be prepared to get involved!
