Writing Center
The Spanish Writing Center collaborates with both 3000 level students and instructors to help Spanish students produce their best writing. Its objective is to empower students with strategies for writing in Spanish through a process of organizing, drafting, and revising their analytical ideas.
The Writing Center is dedicated to helping Spanish students become better communicators by engaging students in the process of crafting a written essay.
We serve the analytical and critical needs of students in 3000 level composition, literature, culture, and linguistic classes helping them to overcome some of the difficulties of writing in a second language. We aspire to unite students who desire to be proficient and creative writers in a community with instructors and faculty.
