The Writing and Reading Center (WRC) is open May 12-August 8 on a limited basis for the Summer 2025 Semester and will reopen fully for Fall 2025 on Sept. 2, 2025.

WRC sessions can be in-person or Zoom. They are typically scheduled for 30 minutes, but the meetings can last from 20 minutes up to to an hour, as desired by the student scheduling. Contact Us for questions about how to schedule/what to bring to the appointment.
