Writing Center Orientation Request
Writing Center orientation sessions are a great way to introduce and familiarize students with the areas of support the Writing Center offers. These short orientation sessions can take place in the course classroom or the Writing Center per faculty preference, and they are designed to acquaint students with the how to schedule a writing consultation and how to prepare for their appointment.

Integrate the Writing Center Into Your Course
Below you will find sample syllabus language for introducing students to Writing Center support services. If you plan to incentive or require your students to attend a writing consultation, we ask that you provide the Writing Center with detailed assignment descriptions, rubrics, and any other information you believe to be productive for our writing consultants to consider as they meet with your students. We're always happy to develop guided questions and discuss helpful ways to scaffold Writing Center visits into your course outcomes.
