Abstract

This article discusses approaches and attitudes toward writing center outreach amid misconceptions surrounding writing centers across many college campuses. Through the experiences of one land grant institution, the authors advocate interdisciplinary cooperation across campus to combat faulty perceptions of writing centers’ offerings. Students and faculty alike benefit from a new understanding of the writing center’s mission to strengthen students’ writing and processes.
