The Writing Center has a strong commitment to bridging the experience of composition to the use of computers and technology. In addition to encouraging our tutors' use of computers during student sessions, we also support students using technology to advance their writing process at any stage of essay development. The computer lab in the Writing Center is equipped with both Apple Macintosh computers and IBM-compatible PCs, and the entire network is connected to laser printers and the internet. Due to its limited size, we must restrict usage of our lab to students who are registered with the Writing Center and are currently meeting with a tutor. To ensure all our users have access to the lab, we limit use to one hour during peak periods.
