University Reading & Writing Center at CSU Sacramento

09/06/2018

Hello everyone! As we kick off the beginning of a new semester, and a new academic year, we want to remind you to take advantage of the writing services which The University Reading and Writing Center offers to Sac State students. We offer half-hour and hour-long appointments for all Sac State students working on any course which has a writing component to it (e.g. History, Science, English Engineering etc.) Our goal is to help students with the writing process and make students aware of traits which constitute good writing. We also have English 121 offered for all students, which is a one-unit course which meets for an hour each week in the writing center. Feel free to pay us a visit this semester from Monday through Thursday, 9-6, and on Fridays from 10-1. Appointments are filling up quickly, so get your preferred time while you still can! Have a wonderful semester everyone!
