This classroom at the heart of the Writing Center is the site of many of the center's mini-classes. Speed Reading classes take place here. Check in at the front desk in 4026 JKB before going to a mini-class. Mini-classes are scheduled weekly. To ask about a class, contact the secretary.

Though classes are held in 4067 JKB, we ask that you come through the main entrance of the center, 4206 JKB.


Computer Classrooms (4051 & 4057 JKB)

Computer classrooms have the same hours as 4026 JKB. Tutors supervise this open-access computer lab; they are there to troubleshoot computer problems, not necessarily tutor papers. Students with major questions about writing will be sent to 4026 JKB.

Printing in this lab is not free. However, we are unable to charge to Signature Cards at this time. We only accept cash, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Computer classrooms are also available for teachers to reserve. In the event that both classrooms are reserved, the open-access computer lab will not be available. Check the schedules outside the computer labs for weekly updates.
