To assist students in academic life, the University offers many computers labs located throughout the University along with several forms of tutoring.

The Campus Wide Lab
The Campus Wide Lab, located in Technology Center, Rm 224, helps all students with computing needs through a variety of software programs and Internet connections. This lab is open weekdays and nights and limited hours on the weekend in a regular semester during hours posted on the door.

The Writing Center
The writing center has a staff of trained writing consultants who will help any student with any writing project for any class at any stage of the writing process. They can help the writer generate ideas, formulate a thesis, organize the paper, and revise it. They will not, however, proofread the paper for the writer, make corrections, or predict a grade. They are not a "fix-it" shop. Rather, their goal is to make better writers, not just better papers.

The writing center has handbooks and handouts for students who want general help with writing. Also, its consultants are happy to answer questions over the phone or by e-mail. They cannot, however, offer consultations by phone or e-mail.

Students are welcome to drop in during these hour. If they wish, they can call ahead to schedule an appointment, but this is not necessary. They can be reached at 797-5184 or uwc@lsus.edu
