You are always welcome to come in to just talk about writing or ask questions. If you’d like more in-depth help with a specific writing assignment or paper, though, we’d recommend bringing along the following materials:
- a copy of the assignment instructions
- the course syllabus
- if you’ve already gotten started, any work you’ve done so far (such as a list of brainstormed ideas, an outline, or a draft of your paper)
