How It Works

Writing Center tutors are there to listen, suggest, diagnose, and advise. They serve as sounding boards, careful readers, and helpful critics, and are able to suggest possibilities implicit in a student's own thinking and writing.

The current tutors are listed below:

  • Nekisha Charles, Business Writing, Spanish
  • Alex Clark, Core II, Core 302, Communications, Japanese Literature in Translation
  • Aaron Cross, Communications, Politics, Creative Writing, Core, Film
  • Chloë Edwards, History, Core I, Politics, Japanese, Music
  • Ramika Gourdine, Communications, Philosophy, Women’s & Gender Studies,
  • Chelsey Kendig, English, French, Psychology, Art & Culture, Core I & II
  • Stephanie Laubscher, English, Art History, Film, Music, Core I & III
  • Cathryn McCrimmon, Psychology, Women’s & Gender Studies, APA Format
  • Olivia Rocamora, English, Spanish, Core I & III, Music & Culture
  • Chelcie Rowell, English, Art History, History, Core 201 & 301
  • Trevor Sheffield, Philosophy, all Core classes
  • Carly Stewart, Communications, Women’s & Gender Studies, Core I
  • Cassie Wells, Art History, Anthropology

Though the majors and other concentrations listed are the particular strengths of each individual, every tutor is capable of assisting with writing on any subject.
