Back by popular demand – A WAC Workshop for Students


This semester is no different than others, soon enough the due dates for those pesky papers and reports will be upon you. Some of the more technical assignments may require a separate abstract along with the body of your paper.  Writing abstracts is quite common for students in natural and social science courses, and is a beneficial skill for students in any discipline.  Although abstract writing might vary a bit from discipline to discipline, an abstract almost always serves as an original, concise, self-contained statement that explains or describes a larger work.  Writing one can be a difficult task.  Luckily, the WAC Committee is offering a student workshop on Wednesday, April 6, on the art of writing abstracts.  The workshop lasts less than an hour, from 12 noon until 12:50 PM, and there is plenty of seating in 5-200. Come and bring along a friend. It will be time well spent when you sit down to write that paper in the coming weeks.
