The Richard Wright Center for Writing, Rhetoric, and Research
About Us
The Richard Wright Center for Writing, Rhetoric, and Research (RWC) is affiliated with the College of Liberal Arts. The RWC is a site of student and faculty support, tutor professional development, and research into writers’ rhetorical awareness and flexibility.
Our mission is to provide an environment for intellectual engagement outside the classroom. At any stage of the creative and research processes, students and faculty have the opportunity to interact with trained tutors using technology as they develop written, oral, and visual representations of their ideas for an academic audience.
You may find more information about the center in our annual reports.
