Writing Services

Writing Services (WS) provides personalized support for all LBC students for all written assignments and all courses, at any stage of the writing process. Professional personnel and peer tutors offer one-on-one sessions of either 30 or 60 minutes, on-campus at the Writing Center or online. Students can meet with writing mentors for brainstorming and outlining, developing ideas, critiquing partial or full drafts, addressing format and citation, and/or reviewing key academic writing concepts. Some courses require Writing Services visits to strengthen students’ academic style for certain written assignments. Additionally, there are a variety of premier writing resources available for free, and the Writing Center hosts periodic writing groups for key writing assignments. Students may also come to the Writing Center for brief questions regarding format, citations, and grammar, and they will be assisted depending upon staff availability.
