We are open!

Now that classes have begun at OU, consider stopping by the Writing Center. You can bring in a piece of writing, stop by to brainstorm, or simply come in to catch a cup of coffee and see what we're up to.

In fact, it's never to early to start planning. We found this assignment calculator from the University of Minnesota. Why not plug in some of your writing projects, and then bring the plan into the Writing Center. You can work with one of our writing consultants to customize a long-term plan that will help you make the most of your time and energy this semester. Taking a little time now will save time later. Believe us. We've learned this the hard way!

Here are some other things to know.

Hours & Locations
Our up-to-the-minute hours are posted on our homepage. We'll have consultants in Wagner Hall this week, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9 am to 5 pm, and until 8 pm on Tuesday. After the Labor Day holiday we'll also have consultants at the Cate Center and Sarkeys.

Online Consultations
If you want to consult with us electronically, please send us an email at writingcenter@ou.edu. We're designing a cool, new way for you to send us writing through our webpage, but until that's ready, we'll do it old-school.

New Homepage
We have a new homepage at the Writing Center. We'll be adding features - like videos and writing guides - throughout the semester, so check us out regularly or follow us on Facebook for updates. We'll also be blogging about things that matter to you as a writer at OU. Bookmark the OU Writing Center now.

We hope to see you soon!
