Technical Help
Computer Labs:
There are many student computer labs throughout the ETSU campus that offer knowledgeable staff to help you troubleshoot your technical issues. For a list of the staffed labs and their hours, click here: Computer Labs
Troubleshooting:
- Get resourceful. Call up your technically inclined peers, friends, or relatives for help.
- Try Google or any other search engine. Type in your question and 9 times out of 10 someone else had the same issue and has posted a solution.
- Still stumped? E-mail redd@etsu.edu
Writing Help
Tutorial services in writing are now available through the Center for Academic Achievement in Sherrod Library. Graduate students can make an appointment with a graduate writing tutor who can review a chapter or part of a chapter during a session (typically 45 minutes) for clarity, fluency, grammatical correctness and style.
- make multiple appointments with the same tutor, if possible; spread these sessions over a period of a couple of weeks to allow time for revision.
- bring a "hard copy" of your work with you to each session: editing can be done much more efficiently on paper than on a computer screen.
Make an Appointment
You can make an appointment by calling 439-7111 or by going to the Center for Academic Achievement website:www.etsu.edu/tutoring make sure to select "Writing - Graduate" under scheduling focus on the online schedule or to tell the office worker making the appointment that you need to work with a graduate writing tutor.
