Campus Writing Center

Marietta College's Campus Writing Center provides a collaborative, supportive, and instructional environment where students work closely with peer tutors to strengthen their college-level writing skills. We are committed to fostering growth and understanding in the writer, not just in the paper.

The Campus Writing Center is a place of learning, and is open to all students, faculty, and staff of Marietta College who desire to improve their writing confidence and self-editing skills. Writers seeking help with the conception, research, drafting, or revising stages of their paper are welcome.

The writing center is staffed with 15 undergraduate tutors who major in a diverse range of subjects (art, athletic training, biology, biochemistry, business, communication, education, English, geology, history, international leadership, political science and Spanish). Students are encouraged to work with a tutor in their subject area, especially for upper-level assignments. Our tutors are not professional editors. Their role is to help students work through some of the major weaknesses in their writing
