The Denison Writing Center

Academic Writing Strategy: Make sure that your thesis is clear, manageable, and debatable. If there is any way for a reader to be confused by your thesis, clarify your ideas.



We believe that writing is not a process that occurs in isolation or by a sole individual. Instead, writing is a collective effort that students, instructors, and Writing Consultants engage in together. We work toward this goal with student writers and faculty.

Select the link below to reserve an appointment with a Writing Consultant.

If your paper is 6 pages or longer, we recommend scheduling two appointments. Schedule your first session on the hour and the second on the half hour if possible. This will allow you to work with the same consultant throughout your session.

For assistance with making appointments, contact Susan Kanter at kanters@denison.edu.
