Welcome to a New Semester!

A glorious summertime at the beach must recede to memory as fall begins anew with a return to literature and essays and thoughts of grammar. I’m ready to enjoy a fresh start and a new semester.

The Stone Writing Center welcomes returning students and students who are attending Del Mar College for the first time this fall with hopes that all will visit the SWC. Students who have already visited the SWC report that their writing does improve, along with their grades, because they find here the opportunity to discuss their papers with Writing Consultants who know and love writing and can assist students with the process of writing.

In addition to tutorials, the SWC also provides a spacious main floor with study tables and computers for students to use; over 80 helpful handouts on topics covering grammar, composition, research, literature, and business writing topics; Boot Camps on Demand (both in-person and online) for additional help with grammar, essays and research papers; a YouTube channel with instructional writing videos; and a Twitter account to keep abreast of current happenings at the SWC. For details and more information on our online resources, Student Assistants at the SWC are happy to answer questions.

All of us are here to make your college experience more productive, more enjoyable and even easier. Call (361) 698-1364 or come by to find a warm and friendly atmosphere which is conducive to creativity, a place where writing becomes one of the best of your college experiences, as it should be.

Don’t forget to read a few blogs, too, ones posted previously and more to come this semester. Information about grammar and writing may not be quite as much fun as surfing the waves and relaxing on the beach, but it has its moments.

See you next time the breeze is cool, the sun is up, and the waves roll into view! My next entry is coming soon. ‘Til then, hang ten!
