The Christa Helms Austin Writing Center is located on the second floor of the Ethel K. Smith Library, adjacent to the ARC, and offers students, staff, and faculty an opportunity to improve and strengthen their writing skills. Students from all majors and classes are encouraged to visit the Writing Center. Tutors can help students work on specific writing assignments as well as helping with any of the “stages” of writing—brainstorming topic ideas, shaping a thesis, revising, learning to better edit your own work, or understanding style demands for papers in different disciplines.
The Writing Center is staffed by faculty-recommended student tutors who have been trained to help other students improve as writers. Students may schedule ongoing tutorial sessions, make appointments for specific writing assignments, or drop-in for a session with an available tutor. Students may also benefit from writing tutorial handouts and checklists available in the Writing Center and through the Center’s website.
