There are many resources on a college campus that students either don't know about or just don't use. The same goes for scholarships and other financial help. When it comes to your education you want to have the best options, and not to brag but NAU does a great job for this. Here are some resources and where/how to access them.
The University Writing Commons:
The University Writing Commons assists students, faculty, and staff to develop, adapt, revise, and improve their writing, research, design, and presentation skills. We approach writing as a process that is collaborative, recursive, and ongoing, and we encourage writers to hone their talents through continuous practice and feedback. They encourage peer-to-peer feedback to encourage learning for the reader and the writer and to promote drafting, revising, re-drafting which is great for any papers you need feedback on whether its speech related or not. There hours and locations are as follows:
Monday-Thursday Health & Learning Center (Green Scene Café, 3rd Floor)
9am-Noon
Inclusion and Multicultural Services (IMS), University Union, Room 105 (by the entrance that faces Ardrey) 9am-Noon
