The Writing Center, located in 601 Lindquist Hall, is devoted to individualized tutoring in writing regardless of the subject. Part of the English Department, the Center serves currently enrolled Wichita State University students at all levels and from all majors. The Writing Center is open from 9:00-3:00 Monday thru Friday and from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. Monday - Thursday. Appointments are appreciated, but walk-ins are always welcome. If you'd like to schedule an appointment, please call 978-3173.

The tutors in the Writing Center are either graduate students or qualified upper division students who use a process-centered approach to help students revise and improve their written work. Most of the tutors in the Writing Center are currently teaching in our Graduate Teaching Program and are therefore very familiar with the assignments for English 011, 013, 015, 100, 101, 102 and 210. But students are encouraged to bring work from other disciplines as well. Our tutors are also familiar with many of the assignments from across the campus and are trained to assist with the specific demands of most disciplines. The Writing Center is not, however, an editing or proofreading service, though tutors typically help writers build their own editing and proofreading skills. In short, students must be prepared to help our tutors to improve their papers.

These services are all provided free of charge to currently enrolled Wichita State University students. If you have any questions you can contact the Writing Center at the number above, or contact the Director of the Writing Center, Kerry Jones, M.F.A. at kerry.jones@wichita.edu .
