The Writing Center

The Writing Center offers students free 30-minute appointments with a faculty member to discuss their writing. Most students bring in assignments that they're currently working on, although they can also ask about prewriting, writing résumés, taking essay tests effectively, general study skills, etc. Any writing in any class -- lab reports, research papers, business writing, and so on -- is fair game.

For evening and weekend students and GCC North students who are unable to use the Writing Center in person, GCC offers the Electronic Writing Center on the Web:
