New at the GC: Writing Consultations

Have you heard the news? The GC’s Office of Career Planning and Professional Development now offers writing consultations! Here’s the announcement in full, in case you missed it:

Graduate writing consultants are now available to meet with Graduate Center students to review students’ written materials and to discuss writing-related issues. Students can bring writing from a variety of genres, including course assignments, conference and dissertation materials, and more. Consultants address questions on both the micro (e.g. sentence structure, grammar, clarity) and macro (e.g. brainstorming, organization) levels. Consultants do not “correct” or copy-edit student writing; rather, they help students learn and implement writing strategies.

All meetings are confidential. Meetings last 45 minutes. Our office is located in room 3300.10.

To make an appointment, sign up here. [Note: Appointment times are made available on a rolling basis, so if there are no open slots now, keep checking back.]

Fall 2016 hours: Monday, Thursday, and Friday, 9:00am — 12:00pm. To schedule an appointment for a different time, email writinghelp@gc.cuny.edu. (Please check sign-up sheet for schedule changes.)

Learn more about our graduate writing consultation services on the Office of Career Planning and Professional Development website.
