The Writing Center

The Writing Center, located in the JKB, is very helpful. The few times I have gone I have never had to wait too long and the workers have given me some great insight. Although I have had positive experiences in the Writing Center, it is still hard for me to go in and have my writing evaluated. I am very sensitive when it comes to the topic of my writing. I know I am not a fantastic writer, so therefore should be happy for constructive criticism. However, this knowledge of my writing abilities makes it even harder for me to hear. I know I am not great and then having them tell me yet again all the things I need to work on can be discouraging. I am working on not letting their comments get me down and remembering they are not telling me I am a weak writer, but simply have things to work on-- kind of like anything in life.
