Writing Center

Mission Statement: The Writing Center strives to serve all undergraduate student writers on the campus of Gonzaga University.  The main goal of the Writing Center is to provide free, non-credit learning support for student writers of all abilities as they produce writing for audiences in curricular, co-curricular, and pre-professional settings.  The tutoring philosophy entails treating every student with respect and approaching each tutoring session as an opportunity for facilitating critical but sensitive dialogue about students' writing processes and writing.  Toward this end, students are welcome to visit the Writing Center at any stage of their writing project, including brainstorming, drafting, revising, and proofreading.  While the Writing Center is not an editing service, tutors are available to help writers develop strategies for self-editing.  In addition, the Writing Center's website (http://www.gonzaga.edu/writingcenter) provides online resources for writers. Students may come to the Writing Center by their own choice and by instructor referral.

Location: The Writing Center is located just inside the main entrance of Foley Center Library, in the glassed-in area adjacent to the 24-hour Study Lounge.  Come in for a visit!
