     Welcome to the Racer Writing Center!

The Racer Writing Center helps students, faculty, and staff from all disciplines become more effective, more successful writers.  We believe that learning to write well is a rewarding, but complicated process and that all writers—no matter how competent—can improve. We therefore believe that all writers benefit from sharing work in progress with knowledgeable, attentive readers. Our methods—multi-faceted, flexible, and above all, collaborative—reflect our dedication to the individual writer, whose talents, voice, and academic and professional goals are central to all our endeavors. 

To fulfill this mission, the Racer Writing Center offers—

·         trained, supportive consultants from a variety of areas of study who work one-on-one with students at all levels and in all disciplines at every stage of the writing process

·         an online space providing instructional materials

·         short-term, non-credit workshops about academic writing

·         a non-credit certificate program in writing to those students who attend the requisite number of writing workshops

·         reference materials about academic writing, for use by students, faculty, and staff

·         a Writer’s Hotline (telephone and email) to address simple grammatical and mechanical issues

·         contact information for professional editors and tutors
