Face-to-face writing consultations provide the most personalized, detailed assistance; however, students can also obtain service via Blackboard's Collaborate, telephone, or e-mail. Collaborate offers the opportunity to converse about improving a paper. If coming to campus or connecting online isn't possible, try phone or email service. For all services, please see the before visiting page. For in-person or Collaborate sessions, please call us at 214-333-5474 to schedule an appointment.
