Workstudy Positions at the Center 

The Writing Center is staffed by nearly two-dozen specially-trained undergraduate and graduate Writing Consultants. Undergraduate students must complete appropriate training before working in the Center. As such, if you are interested in a workstudy position with the Writing Center, you need to complete English 290 ("Principles of Tutoring Writing") this spring; you will then be eligible for a paid workstudy position in the Center beginning in the Fall of 2007. EN 290 requires instructor permission, so contact Dr. Drew Morse if you would like to register. Though not yet confirned, it is likely that this year's EN 290 will fulfill the core's W requirement. Last year's EN 290 syllabus will give you a general sense of the ideas and materials covered in the seminar.
