• Provide an audience for speeches and presentations 
• Help with resumes, CVs, personal statements, and other career documents 
• Assist with MLA, APA, and AMA formatting 

Writing Center Mission 

The Writing Center is a place where the dynamic nature of the writing process can be explored, and where effective writing habits can be modeled and developed in a flexible, comfortable environment. Accordingly, Writing Consultants act as an authentic audience and collaborate with writers at any stage of the writing process. Our skilled consultants help writers interpret assignments and readings, organize and effectively support ideas, plan revisions, and refine language, grammar, and style.
