Writing Liaisons

At ECU, a Writing Liaison is a faculty member who facilitates communication between academic programs and the University Writing Program to ensure that students receive consistent information about writing expectations and writing strategies. Additionally, the goal of the Liaisons program is to keep the leadership of the University Writing Program, the University Writing Center, and the Writing Foundations Program informed about the kinds of writing that students are expected to do in different degree programs and to keep faculty in ECU’s degree programs informed about what goes on in the Writing Foundations and University Writing Programs in terms of instructional philosophy, curriculum, tutorial support, and professional development opportunities.
