Papers received by the Online Writing Lab (OWL) after 12:00 p.m. Friday will be responded to on the following workday.
Please send your paper as an attachment in Microsoft Word (.docx) or (.doc) or Rich Text Format (.rtf) to writing@matc.edu, and include the following information in the body of your email:
Please allow one to two business days for a response. Papers submitted outside of normal MATC Writing Center hours are looked at when the center next reopens. In other words, papers submitted over the weekend will be returned the following Monday or Tuesday.
Instructors: We offer Writing Skills Workshops, which are especially helpful for instructors of non-English courses who assign papers. For example, "WS-4: Where do I begin? Preparing a First Draft" can help history students get started in the writing process, and "WS-8: To Cite or Not to Cite? APA Documentation Made Easy" can help psychology students properly format their papers.

The entire writing lab: They were an absolute pleasure to work with.
I worked with all of them at least once this semester and they were all incredible and (made) English fun.
