The English , Department is
pleased to announce the estabf
lishment of a Writing Clinic
on the Highacres Campus, and
would like to briefly explain
the purpose and functioning of
the Clinic.
Primarily, the Writing
Clinic is an organic outgrowth
of the "new English I," in
tended to provide a facility
for students with serious de
ficiencies in the area of
basic grammar and composition
to find help. As such, the
function of the Clinic is re
medial rather than rhetorical,
and is intended to deal with
specific identifiable problems.
(It is not intended to provide
a general refresher course in
grammar or to-replace English I
or any other course.)
On a broader level, the
Writing Clinic offers a ser
vice to the student body (as
well as to the faculty and
staff) in general, providing
an institution to which any
member of the Highacres com
munity may appeal for aid in
problems dealing with grammar
and composition.
The Writing Clinic will
operate as a non-fee, non
graded, and non-credit service.
