Writing Center

The IAU Writing Center provides support for students working on course papers and independent writing projects. The center can help at any stage of the writing process, from brainstorming to final polishing.

 

Students prepare two to three drafts of an assignment, meeting in person or via email with the Writing Center Coordinator as they send versions of their paper back and forth until a final draft is ready.
