Campus Resources: Writing Center
The Chowan University Writing Center provides a quiet, supportive and resourceful environment for all students in any major to get help with their papers at any stage of writing process. The Writing Center staff and peer tutors are available to help students develop topics, strengthen arguments, structure paragraphs, understand grammar errors, and organize writing for clarity and effectiveness through revision in an informal, one-on-one setting. Students may also use the Writing Center as a comfortable place to plan, think and write their papers.
The Writing Center tutors read students’ papers in progress and give constructive feedback about the thesis statement, organization, paragraphs, arguments and documentation to improve on drafts. It provides a comfortable and friendly zone for students who can share their personal concerns about writing and get help right from the beginning of the semester.
Visit the Writing Center for one-on-one tutoring and writing workshops.
The Writing Center will help students at any stage of writing:
- Generating ideas
- Structuring arguments
- Revising drafts
- Designing methods and documentations
Professors may also recommend or require their students to go to the Writing Center for help on specific assignments. The tutor will work with the professors and send them regular messages about whether the student has kept appointments and what tasks were completed during the meetings.
