Bill Jolliff speaks at editing workshop Tuesday in Stevens 208

Most of us don’t worry too much about a writing mistake or two. It’s what we have to say that really matters, right?

Well, yes – and no.

The bad news is that too many editing errors can keep our readers from taking us – and our ideas – seriously. The good news is that most of our errors are relatively easy to fix, once we figure out which ones we’re prone to make.

On Tuesday, Sept. 21, Bill Jolliff (English) will identify the 10 errors that professors are most likely to mark on student work, and he’ll demonstrate how to fix them. The session begins at 6:30 p.m. in Stevens 208. Faculty, please encourage students to attend.
