The Writing Center provides a wide range of support to improve the writing skills of Davidson College students.  Through collaboration with a tutor, students can assess their own writing process and learn to write more effectively.  Ultimately, the Writing Center strives to create better writers, not just better papers.

In the Writing Center, trained peer tutors will work with students at any stage in the writing process--from prewriting to fine-tuning a finished draft--for assignments in classes across the curriculum or for personal projects such as cover letters. Our mission is to help students develop strategies for writing effectively in every situation.

Hours:        Sunday-Thursday, 2-4 p.m., 8-11 p.m. 
Location:    Chambers North Basement, B039
