MACOMB, IL – The University Writing Center at °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¼Ç¼ is open to graduate and undergraduate students in any academic discipline.
The center, which serves the Macomb and Quad Cities campuses, employs graduate and undergraduate students with a variety of backgrounds, including computer science, instructional design and technology, liberal arts and sciences, theatre and psychology. The student employees can help students with any part of their writing process and walk-ins are welcome.
Help for students is available with writing projects ranging from essays and lab reports to cover letters or a thesis. The mission of the Writing Center is to offer students at any academic level a collaborative, one-on-one consultation with writing projects during any part of the writing process.
