Information for Instructors
The Writing Center serves students and faculty across the curriculum.
We hope that every instructor at UK will encourage students to visit the Writing Center, but a Writing Center visit cannot be required. Experience has taught us that the Writing Center works best when students choose to visit us. As professionals in the Writing Center, we honor confidentiality, so we do not verify student appointments. No matter how well-intentioned, please do not offer extra credit for Writing Center visits, and please do not send entire classes of students to the Writing Center. We can accommodate only so many clients at any given time due to our scheduling and staffing limitations. We appreciate your support of our mission and services.
We would love to visit your class to talk about our Writing Center services.
You can also bring your class to the Writing Center, where we can show students who we are and what we can do for them.
If you have any questions, or if you would like to request a class visit to the Writing Center or a class visit from a Writing Center ambassador, please email Judy Gatton Prats, Director of the Writing Center, at judithgprats@uky.edu.
Thanks for supporting the UK Writing Center.
