About the Center for Writing Excellence

ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ’s Center for Writing Excellence, which integrates the Writing Center and Writing Across the University programs, serves as the unified source of support, collaboration, and inspiration for all writing-related activities on our campus. Prominently located on the first-floor of Belk Library, the Center for Writing Excellence is both a physical hub and a symbol of our university’s commitment to the centrality of writing to academic, professional, and civic success.

°Õ³ó±ðÌýWriting Across the University Program coordinates all efforts to support the teaching and learning of writing on ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ’s campus. Currently entering the 4th year of implementing of our Writing Excellence Initiative, the WAU Program provides a range of support including:

  • individual or departmental consultations for developing writing outcomes, assignments, and evaluation criteria
  • writing boot camps and writing groups
  • writing pedagogy and research grants
  • faculty and staff writing pedagogy workshops
  • assistance designing disciplinary writing research projects

°Õ³ó±ðÌýWriting Center provides individual consultations to all students, faculty, and staff members on any academic, professional, or co-curricular writing project, traditional or multi-modal. Housed in a renovated space which includes multi-modal studios and a presentation practice room, Writing Center consultants also:

  • collaborate with faculty as Disciplinary Writing Consultants
  • collaborate with students in a variety of writing workshops (Honors theses, undergraduate research, designing research posters, etc.)
