Writing Center in Tahlequah
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to provide our clients – students, faculty members, and NSU staff – with the tools, the techniques, and the confidence needed to achieve their respective academic goals. We strive to provide a comfortable environment in which clients and consultants can work together to discuss the nature and presentation of ideas. The Writing Center thus functions as a literacy instruction site within the academic community and provides support to student writers from all disciplines and with varying abilities. The basic belief that writing allows people to learn deeply, to think more clearly, and to join the academic conversation serves as the cornerstone of the Writing Center's operation.

Drop-in? Make a same-day appointment when you come into the Writing Center by scheduling a time with an available tutor. If a writing tutor isn't meeting with anyone, they'd be more than happy to speak with you. If they are all meeting with writers, one will set up an appointment for you to come back! (NOTE: It is highly recommended that you do not just pop in the day that your paper's due. We cannot guarantee that someone will be available to work with you.)
