Writing Cru Workshops

Workshops are a great way to get in your Writing Center requirement for your class. All of our workshops are interactive, so you must bring a current or past writing assignment with you, either on your laptop or printed out. Workshops can fit up to 12 students, and you should sign up ahead of time to ensure that your spot is reserved.

Listed below are workshops any student can attend. If you are looking for a workshop that was specifically designed for your course, please refer to instructions provided to you by your professor or contact us directly for more information.
