Writing Center
The Writing Center provides individual and group writing support free of charge to any member of the Brown community. Writing Center staff help students with all stages of the writing process, from finding a topic through drafting, revising, and final editing. Writing conferences generally last an hour; ongoing weekly appointments are available. Writing Center associates also offer a series of workshops on specific topics designed to meet the needs of a variety of students. Please visit the Writing Center homepage to learn more about these workshops.
Individual writing conferences are available on the hour from 3 p.m. to 8:00 PM on Sunday and 12:00 - 9:00 PM Monday -Thursday. Students may schedule an appointment by emailing Writing_Center@brown.edu. Include the course and page length, the day, date, and hours you are available in order of preference; broader ranges of times will make it easier to get an appointment.

The Writing Center is located in J. Walter Wilson, room 213, and is open Sunday 3:00 - 9:00 PM and Monday - Thursday from 12:00 to 9:00 PM. St udents should schedule an appointment several days to one week in advance.
