Information for Your Syllabus

Please feel free to copy and paste the following paragraphs into each of your syllabi:

The Writing Center can provide you with meaningful support as you write for this class, other classes, or for non-academic purposes. You are welcome to bring in everything from lab reports, presentations, and research papers to cover letters, application essays, and graduate theses and dissertations. Trained undergraduate and graduate peer consultants are available to talk with you as you plan, draft, and revise your writing, both in person and online. You don't need to have anything written yet: Writing Center Consultants are happy to sit down and brainstorm with you as soon as you get an assignment, as well as help you organize your ideas or polish a final draft.

There are three ways you can connect with a Consultant: In Person, Online (a real-time, video conversation), and eTutoring (email feedback). In-person Writing Center appointments are held in Andrews Hall 102. Writers may choose between 25- and 50-minute appointments. To learn more about online options and view video tutorials, visit https://writing.unl.edu/online-writing-center-services/

The Writing Center also offers accountability appointments, in which you can sit beside a Writing Center consultant and talk as much or as little as you like about your writing. You can indicate that this is what you're looking for when you sign up for an appointment.
