The Writing Center provides free writing assistance to all Alfred University students (undergraduate and graduate), faculty, and support personnel. Our student tutors represent a wide range of disciplines. Each tutor is trained to deal with all kinds of writing tasks, from pre-writing (generating a thesis, discovery of ideas) to drafting (organizing materials, developing evidence, incorporating research) to revision (editing, presentation issues). Whatever your need -- whether a quick grammar brush-up or long-term assistance with a research paper -- we can help you improve your writing abilities and gain confidence as a writer. |

How To Use the Writing Center
| The Writing Center is located in Seidlin 003. All you have to do to get an appointment is stop by and sign up on the list outside the door. Or, if you come by during any hours we are open and no one is being helped, you can have a walk-in session. Monday and Tuesday mornings (9:20 to 12:10) are specially reserved for walk-in sessions, but you can still walk in any time. Sitting down with a tutor to look over and discuss a paper is the best way to not only improve that paper, but your writing in general.
The tutors at The Writing Center represent a variety of writing backgrounds. All of us feel we can help you with any type of writing, but if you feel you would rather go to someone in your major, just check the list below. The schedule will tell you who works when. |
