About Us:
The Writing Center is here to guide and empower you through any stage of the writing and reading process. Whether you are having a hard time getting started on an assignment, stuck somewhere in the middle, or want us to provide feedback on a finished product, we are here for you. We provide suggestions on larger, global issues including, but not limited to, thesis, clarity, organization, and content. We won't fix your grammar, spelling, or punctuation for you, but we will help you find and fix those small, local issues yourself, show you how and why they probably happened, and empower you to avoid and/or fix those issues in the future. For more information about the Writing Center, contact us at (760) 245-4271 ext. 2607.
