Our Mission

The mission of Writing Across the Curriculum is to foster consensus that writing is integral to a liberal arts education at Loyola and to support the use of writing as a learning tool in all disciplines. WAC has articulated several ongoing goals by which to fulfill this mission:

Goal 1: To promote the use of writing in all classes through interdisciplinary faculty forums, class lectures, and consultation on writing in the disciplines.

Goal 2: To offer easily accessible peer tutoring that helps Loyola students improve the quality of their writing.

Goal 3: To maintain and operate computer centers and classrooms consistent  with up-to-date writing and research technologies.

Goal 4: To publicize effectively the services we offer to on- and off-campus students.

Goal 5: To reward and nurture outstanding writing as an essential feature of educational excellence at Loyola.
