Information for Faculty

What is the Communication Center?

A place where students can receive tutoring to help them improve their written and oral communication skills.

Emerging from the faculty’s interest and expressed desire for better communication skills in students’ work, it was created and is managed by the Managerial Communication Area.

For more information, see Information for Students.

How can I use it?

There are several options to use the Communication Center’s services:

• Tell your students that it is a resource they should all consider using.
• Suggest/refer specific students see a consultant at the Communication Center.
• Require that certain students go there to receive help on a writing assignment or oral presentation before they submit it.
• Require that unacceptable (written and/or oral) assignments be reviewed by the Communication Center before they can be resubmitted.

How do I know if one of my students used it?

We notify all faculty when one of their students visits the Communication Center.
