The Writing Center and
Computer Lab is a free service to University of Arkansas students. Our
staff consists of senior level English majors who can assist writers during
all stages of the writing process: pre-writing, drafting, revising, and
editing.
Walk-ins are always
welcome. If you want a particular time slot or tutor, you should make an
appointment. A typical conference may last thirty minutes, but you may
want to schedule a follow-up appointment. It is also a good idea to bring
specific information about your current or future writing assignment and
any drafts you have already completed.
While we will not edit
your work, we will provide feedback, suggestions, and support.

--Generate ideas
--become more confident writers
--Develop a thesis
--Learn how to proofread
