We would love for faculty to include information in their syllabus about the Writing Center’s functions and availability. Below is a sample of what you may wish to include; feel free to paste it into your syllabus document. (Be sure to check our hours of operation each semester before printing and distributing!)
The Writing Center offers tutoring services to all university students, staff, and faculty on any sort of writing project. You may come for a tutoring session during any stage of the writing process, whether you need help brainstorming, narrowing a topic, clarifying a thesis, organizing your thoughts, documenting your sources, or improving the flow of your language. All of our tutors are trained to give you thoughtful feedback and advice on a variety of writing concerns.
We are open for appointments and walk-ins during the following hours:
Fall 2008 Hours
Sunday: 12-5
Monday: 9-6
Tuesday: 9-9
Wednesday: 9-9
Thursday: 9-6
Friday: 10-3

In addition to traditional face-to-face tutoring, we also offer online tutoring for students who cannot come to campus. Through our Center for Online Tutoring (COLT), we can respond to students’ submissions using email, instant message chat, or phone chat. We guarantee a 72-hour turn-around for online submissions (excluding weekends).
Students may make an appointment by coming in person to SSCB 2105, by calling 281-283-2910, or by visiting our website ( www.uhcl.edu/writingcenter ) and clicking “ Make an Appointment.” To submit online to COLT or find out more about these options and other services, visit the website.
