The UAF Writing Center
The Writing Center also features a Computer Laboratory. Currently we have eighteen PCs available on a walk-in basis. Technicians and tutors are on hand to assist with computer-related questions. There is no charge for printing.
The Writing Center is a resource center providing a full range of dictionaries, handbooks, thesauruses, and it is an art gallery displaying work by students from the UAF Art Department.
See you soon in the Writing Center!

We collaborate with each student on a one-to-one basis, and we will work with students at any phase of the writing process -- planning, drafting, revising. We can also help writers discover ways of improving grammar, mechanics, and punctuation.
Tutorials. Tutorial appointments at the Writing Center are 30 minutes long, and we encourage you to call or stop by to make an appointment. Walk-in sessions are often available, but in the last half of the semester we are often booked.
E-mail/Fax/Telephone Tutoring: We provide a telephone tutoring service for those not able to come to our campus location: CRCD students, students enrolled in courses through E-Learning and Distance Education, and those in the Fairbanks-North Star Borough with life demands preventing easy campus access. If you would like a telephone session call the Writing Center (907/474-5314) for an appointment and then e-mail ( fywrc@uaf.edu ) or fax (1-800-478-5246) your paper to us the day of your appointment--by 5:00 pm for an evening session and 12:00 pm for a Sunday afternoon session. We will then call you at the set time and collaborate with you on your writing need or needs. We offer telephone tutorials on Monday through Thursday evenings (7:15, 8:15, 9:15) and Sunday afternoon (1:15, 2:15, 3:15, 4:15, 5:15)/
