WORKSHOPS, SUPPORT GROUPS,
AND DISCUSSION SESSIONS

SPRING SEMESTER 2005

As I gave writing workshops for WAC courses in many disciplines, I kept seeing students who did not know how to do university-level research and university-level writing. I hope that this web site will offer you a private, easy chance to catch up or refresh your skills. Please feel welcome to make an appointment in the Writing Center to have someone go over your writing or research (extension 6981). Feedback on this web site is also very welcome - lara.klaber@gmail.com.

Please click on the following links to get a handout or exercise on a topic that fits your needs. The handouts are designed in terms of experiences students relate in the Writing Center.
