Our Mission

The Writing Center offers resources and conversation vital to producing good writers. Good writers, we believe, consider situation, people, and rhetorical possibilities and will communicate in an ethical and effective manner. Our practice is rooted in the understanding that writing plays an essential role in the learning process. We are student-centered, committed to advancing Valparaiso University’s dynamic learning community.

Writing Center Consultation

Our writing consultants are here to talk to you about your writing. They can offer guiding questions, advice, and resources regarding any stage of the writing process. We want you to leave the Writing Center with a good understanding of what you can do in your next draft.
Come in for a face-to-face conference, which generally lasts 25-30 minutes. You may schedule online here: valpo.mywconline.com, or you may check for walk-in appointments when there is a green light on the Writing Center walk-in availability sign outside of the Writing Center. We look forward to working with you!
