Writing Center

The Writing Center is one of three components of the Institute for Writing Studies (along with the First-Year Writing and Writing Across the Curriculum programs).

The Writing Center provides a place where you can discuss your writing with trained consultants. It is a service for all members of the STJ community, from undergraduate to graduate, ESL to honors, international students to faculty members.

In addition to providing one-on-one consultations with students, the Writing Center sponsors readings and presentations by students and faculty, as well as faculty conversations about writing pedagogy and research methods. In sum, the Writing Center exists to help foster a writing culture within the University.

The Institute for Writing Studies also provides support for graduate students writing dissertations, taking exams, or those simply seeking a network and community of their peers.  The Writing Center has live online tutoring and e-tutoring services for those students who cannot be present in the Center during normal operating hours.
