Mission and Policies
Mission
The mission of The Learning Center is to serve "all learners at all levels". Writing Support Services assists in fulfilling that mission by serving all writers in every stage of the writing process. Writing, like learning, is a dynamic process, and writers, no matter their level of expertise, can always improve. Working from this philosophy, Writing Support Services' tutors focus on the process of writing and work to establish a foundation for student success in writing.
Policies
Writing Support Services is not an editing service. Our goal is to improve students' writing ability, not to "fix" individual papers.
Peer writing tutors work only with writers and their texts. Whether in person or online, the work submitted must be your own. Writing is a process that involves the active participation of both parties.
While we welcome drop-ins, it is recommended that students make an appointment to meet with a peer writing tutor.
