The Regis Writing Program offers support to students, faculty, and staff in all stages of writing. In addition to writing, this program also is involved in literacy, critical thinking, and writing to learn/learning to write. Because Regis University emphasizes writing across the curriculum, writing in all disciplines--from biology to math to literature--has a writing component. We support writers through:
The Writing Center
This friendly place in Loyola offers coffee, computers, and consultants. The Writing Center has been a supportive environment for writers of all abilities since 1989. From brainstorming to revising, we are here to help students, faculty, and staff at any stage of writing because we assert that good writing comes from REwriting. We also believe that the written product is important, so we help with grammar and usage and suggest ways to proofread final drafts. Although we do not guarantee "A" papers, we do offer the resources necessary for improving both writing and writers.
The Writing Center is located in Loyola 1 and is open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Friday. In addition, consultants work in the dorms Sunday through Thursday from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Please call 303.458.4924 to make an appointment.
