Our writing center consultants went to a local elementary school and worked with about 180 4th and 5th graders. They helped them write a letter to college students describing ambitions for when they grow up. They learned about
letter writing and wrote their letters during class. The tutors collected the letters and today have set up tables around campus to invite college students to answer the letters. Each response will be placed in an envelope, decorated, and delivered back to students at the school, along with some writing center pencils and Mad Libs.
Writing is alive and well at the campus of Texas A&M!
