The Writing Center at JSU has reopened for in-person services this semester after operating virtually during the 2020-2021 academic year. 

The goal of the Writing Center is to help visitors improve their writing in areas where they struggle and tend to fall short. Therefore, consultants in the Writing Center are not looking to proofread, edit, and/or correct assignments. But they are available to assist at other stages of the writing process, from understanding an assignments to revision.

Writing Center Consultants possess a wide range of skills to assist and guide students in different types of assignments. Specifically, they can help with starting essays, creating thesis statements, organizing writing, using MLA & APA formatting, addressing grammar-specific issues, helping with multi-modal presentations, and developing general writing skills.

Services are available to all undergraduate, graduate, and post graduate students, as well as all JSU faculty and staff. Instructions for making appointments at the Writing Center can be found on the Writing Center website.
