JANUARY 20, 2026

Welcome to the Writing and Communication Center on both campuses! 

The WCC is your calm, supportive space to grow as a writer, speaker, and thinker — and to explore how tools like AI can strengthen your work. Here, the focus is on process over product: we care about how you get there, not just the final grade. You’ll have the space to find your own voice, make choices, and build confidence.

What we offer:

·       Free 30- or 60-minute consultations for all LAU students, staff, and faculty

·       One-on-one or small-group sessions with trained peer and professional tutors

·       Help at any stage of the process: from brainstorming to polishing a final draft

·       Support for essays, research papers, résumés/CVs, presentations, personal writing, and more

·       Guidance on responsible and effective AI use in writing and communication

We'll open our doors in Spring 2026 on Monday, February 2, from 10am-4pm.
