Request an Event Outside of Class
The University Writing Center offers educational presentations, workshops, feedback studios, informational tables, and other custom events. Student groups, official TAMU departments, and other organizations can request us for their events on a limited basis.
We are primarily student-fee funded, so most of these events must benefit undergraduate and graduate students, although we can consider other requests if adequate resources are available. Due to limited staff and availability, we may not be able to support all submitted requests.
To ensure our role in your event is impactful for attendees, we ask that you consider the following before submitting your request:
- Effectiveness. Some workshops work best with drafts. For example, Writing Clearly and Concisely, which has many practical revision tips, effectively supports students who have drafts that can be revised as part of the workshop.
- Attendance. To make the event worth our time, we prioritize requests that ensure audiences of at least 20.
- Scope. We accommodate custom requests, but depending on the topic, we may decline and point you to another department like the Career Center or the Graduate School.
- Timing. At least 2 weeks’ notice is required to schedule in most cases. This notice allows us to reserve time for preparation and travel.
Once you submit the form below, our event coordinator will reach out by email in 1-3 business days.
