Moving Forward

“You realize that our mistrust of the future makes it hard to give up the past."― Chuck Palahniuk, Survivor
Last year, the Writing Center moved away from it's old, cozy location in the basement of Kettler with the rest of CASA. Now students can find Writing Help on the second floor of Helmke Library from the same Writing Center, but in a new space with a new feel - the Learning Commons.

We are on our third semester here in Helmke now, and with settling into a new location, come a lot of changes.

The Writing Center is now open until 8pm, Monday through Thursday.
We changed to allow more options for helping busy students.



Reference Librarians have carrels adjacent to the Writing Center in order to better help student writers with research. The change also visually connects writing and research.

Re:Write! has moved from print media to digital media, and here at the Writing Center we are incredibly excited to continue to embrace learning in the commons both in-house and in the world of social media. We aren't completely sure what everything's going to look like yet or precisely what this blog may bring, but we know that not knowing is not an acceptable excuse for not trying.
