<p>Tuesdays | 3-5pm  | AAARCC (915 5th St.) </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Stop by for support from the On-Campus Writing Lab to begin a project, review a draft,
<br />or improve your organization and writing skills! Visit the AAARCC on Tuesdays from 3-5pm to chat with OWL Writing Consultants. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are encouraged, so sign-up at owl.purdue.edu </p>

<p> </p>

<p>How does Purdue OWL help students? </p>

<p>Thousands of Purdue students, especially the good writers, come to the OWL because they know it's useful to talk about what they're writing and to get feedback. Writers bring in papers from courses in biology, engineering, political science, technology, communications, and many other courses besides English. They also come in to work on resumes and job applications, internship and co-op reports, or any other writing task they're working on, including papers for graduate seminars. We help Purdue students, faculty, staff, and even those learning English as a second language. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Meet the Purdue Owl Consultants:  </p>

<p>Jacqueline Borchert (she/her) is a Professional Writing Specialist at OWL. Jacqueline comes from the world of education, where she has taught at every level: preschool, middle school, and English Language Learner. Her current research focuses on multiracial identity, scholar activism, and respectability politics. She has two pups named Eevee and Vulpix (Pixie). In her free time, she enjoys reading (science fiction, social justice nonfiction, romantasy) and watching/playing DND. </p>

<p>Other writing consultants to be announced.  </p>

<p>Tuesdays | 3-5pm  | AAARCC (915 5th St.) </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Stop by for support from the On-Campus Writing Lab to begin a project, review a draft,
<br />or improve your organization and writing skills! Visit the AAARCC on Tuesdays from 3-5pm to chat with OWL Writing Consultants. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are encouraged, so sign-up at owl.purdue.edu </p>

<p> </p>

<p>How does Purdue OWL help students? </p>

<p>Thousands of Purdue students, especially the good writers, come to the OWL because they know it's useful to talk about what they're writing and to get feedback. Writers bring in papers from courses in biology, engineering, political science, technology, communications, and many other courses besides English. They also come in to work on resumes and job applications, internship and co-op reports, or any other writing task they're working on, including papers for graduate seminars. We help Purdue students, faculty, staff, and even those learning English as a second language. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Meet the Purdue Owl Consultants:  </p>

<p>Jacqueline Borchert (she/her) is a Professional Writing Specialist at OWL. Jacqueline comes from the world of education, where she has taught at every level: preschool, middle school, and English Language Learner. Her current research focuses on multiracial identity, scholar activism, and respectability politics. She has two pups named Eevee and Vulpix (Pixie). In her free time, she enjoys reading (science fiction, social justice nonfiction, romantasy) and watching/playing DND. </p>

<p>Other writing consultants to be announced.  </p>

<p>Hello! My name is Tongyu Zhou (M.S.Ed., MPhil.Ed.) (she/her) and I’m a staff therapist at CAPS. I’m excited to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in both English and Mandarin. Whether you need advice, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to talk, I’m here to help.

<p>Peace! My name is Mohamad “Mo” Almakky (M.A., M.Ed.) (he/him) from Saudi Arabia and I'm a doctoral psychology intern at CAPS! I’m thrilled to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in English and Arabic. I enjoy connecting with students, whether you need support, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to chat. A little about me: I love coffee (dreaming of opening my own shop!), traveling (visited all 50 U.S. states), vlogging on YouTube, baking, and exploring new places. Feel free to stop by - I’m here for you! </p>

<p>Tuesdays | 3-5pm  | AAARCC (915 5th St.) </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Stop by for support from the On-Campus Writing Lab to begin a project, review a draft,
<br />or improve your organization and writing skills! Visit the AAARCC on Tuesdays from 3-5pm to chat with OWL Writing Consultants. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are encouraged, so sign-up at owl.purdue.edu </p>

<p> </p>

<p>How does Purdue OWL help students? </p>

<p>Thousands of Purdue students, especially the good writers, come to the OWL because they know it's useful to talk about what they're writing and to get feedback. Writers bring in papers from courses in biology, engineering, political science, technology, communications, and many other courses besides English. They also come in to work on resumes and job applications, internship and co-op reports, or any other writing task they're working on, including papers for graduate seminars. We help Purdue students, faculty, staff, and even those learning English as a second language. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Meet the Purdue Owl Consultants:  </p>

<p>Jacqueline Borchert (she/her) is a Professional Writing Specialist at OWL. Jacqueline comes from the world of education, where she has taught at every level: preschool, middle school, and English Language Learner. Her current research focuses on multiracial identity, scholar activism, and respectability politics. She has two pups named Eevee and Vulpix (Pixie). In her free time, she enjoys reading (science fiction, social justice nonfiction, romantasy) and watching/playing DND. </p>

<p>Other writing consultants to be announced.  </p>

<p>Hello! My name is Tongyu Zhou (M.S.Ed., MPhil.Ed.) (she/her) and I’m a staff therapist at CAPS. I’m excited to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in both English and Mandarin. Whether you need advice, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to talk, I’m here to help. Additional information about me: I love trying new recipes, exploring restaurants, traveling, hiking, and doing jigsaw puzzles. Feel free to stop by – I’m here to support you! </p>

<p>Peace! My name is Mohamad “Mo” Almakky (M.A., M.Ed.) (he/him) from Saudi Arabia and I'm a doctoral psychology intern at CAPS! I’m thrilled to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in English and Arabic. I enjoy connecting with students, whether you need support, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to chat. A little about me: I love coffee (dreaming of opening my own shop!), traveling (visited all 50 U.S. states), vlogging on YouTube, baking, and exploring new places. Feel free to stop by - I’m here for you! </p>

<p>Tuesdays | 3-5pm  | AAARCC (915 5th St.) </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Stop by for support from the On-Campus Writing Lab to begin a project, review a draft,
<br />or improve your organization and writing skills! Visit the AAARCC on Tuesdays from 3-5pm to chat with OWL Writing Consultants. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are encouraged, so sign-up at owl.purdue.edu </p>

<p> </p>

<p>How does Purdue OWL help students? </p>

<p>Thousands of Purdue students, especially the good writers, come to the OWL because they know it's useful to talk about what they're writing and to get feedback. Writers bring in papers from courses in biology, engineering, political science, technology, communications, and many other courses besides English. They also come in to work on resumes and job applications, internship and co-op reports, or any other writing task they're working on, including papers for graduate seminars. We help Purdue students, faculty, staff, and even those learning English as a second language. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Meet the Purdue Owl Consultants:  </p>

<p>Jacqueline Borchert (she/her) is a Professional Writing Specialist at OWL. Jacqueline comes from the world of education, where she has taught at every level: preschool, middle school, and English Language Learner. Her current research focuses on multiracial identity, scholar activism, and respectability politics. She has two pups named Eevee and Vulpix (Pixie). In her free time, she enjoys reading (science fiction, social justice nonfiction, romantasy) and watching/playing DND. </p>

<p>Other writing consultants to be announced.  </p>

<p>Meet Your Liaisons: </p>

<p>Hello! My name is Tongyu Zhou (M.S.Ed., MPhil.Ed.) (she/her) and I’m a staff therapist at CAPS. I’m excited to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in both English and Mandarin. Whether you need advice, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to talk, I’m here to help. Additional information about me: I love trying new recipes, exploring restaurants, traveling, hiking, and doing jigsaw puzzles. Feel free to stop by – I’m here to support you! </p>

<p>Peace! My name is Mohamad “Mo” Almakky (M.A., M.Ed.) (he/him) from Saudi Arabia and I'm a doctoral psychology intern at CAPS! I’m thrilled to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in English and Arabic. I enjoy connecting with students, whether you need support, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to chat. A little about me: I love coffee (dreaming of opening my own shop!), traveling (visited all 50 U.S. states), vlogging on YouTube, baking, and exploring new places. Feel free to stop by - I’m here for you! </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Tuesdays | 3-5pm  | AAARCC (915 5th St.) </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Stop by for support from the On-Campus Writing Lab to begin a project, review a draft,
<br />or improve your organization and writing skills! Visit the AAARCC on Tuesdays from 3-5pm to chat with OWL Writing Consultants. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are encouraged, so sign-up at owl.purdue.edu </p>

<p> </p>

<p>How does Purdue OWL help students? </p>

<p>Thousands of Purdue students, especially the good writers, come to the OWL because they know it's useful to talk about what they're writing and to get feedback. Writers bring in papers from courses in biology, engineering, political science, technology, communications, and many other courses besides English. They also come in to work on resumes and job applications, internship and co-op reports, or any other writing task they're working on, including papers for graduate seminars. We help Purdue students, faculty, staff, and even those learning English as a second language. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Meet the Purdue Owl Consultants:  </p>

<p>Jacqueline Borchert (she/her) is a Professional Writing Specialist at OWL. Jacqueline comes from the world of education, where she has taught at every level: preschool, middle school, and English Language Learner. Her current research focuses on multiracial identity, scholar activism, and respectability politics. She has two pups named Eevee and Vulpix (Pixie). In her free time, she enjoys reading (science fiction, social justice nonfiction, romantasy) and watching/playing DND. </p>

<p>Other writing consultants to be announced.  </p>

<p>Meet Your Liaisons: </p>

<p>Hello! My name is Tongyu Zhou (M.S.Ed., MPhil.Ed.) (she/her) and I’m a staff therapist at CAPS. I’m excited to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in both English and Mandarin. Whether you need advice, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to talk, I’m here to help. Additional information about me: I love trying new recipes, exploring restaurants, traveling, hiking, and doing jigsaw puzzles. Feel free to stop by – I’m here to support you! </p>

<p>Peace! My name is Mohamad “Mo” Almakky (M.A., M.Ed.) (he/him) from Saudi Arabia and I'm a doctoral psychology intern at CAPS! I’m thrilled to offer Liaison Hours at AAARCC, providing support in English and Arabic. I enjoy connecting with students, whether you need support, have questions about mental health resources, or just want to chat. A little about me: I love coffee (dreaming of opening my own shop!), traveling (visited all 50 U.S. states), vlogging on YouTube, baking, and exploring new places. Feel free to stop by - I’m here for you! </p>

<p>Tuesdays | 3-5pm  | AAARCC (915 5th St.) </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Stop by for support from the On-Campus Writing Lab to begin a project, review a draft,
<br />or improve your organization and writing skills! Visit the AAARCC on Tuesdays from 3-5pm to chat with OWL Writing Consultants. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are encouraged, so sign-up at owl.purdue.edu </p>

<p> </p>

<p>How does Purdue OWL help students? </p>

<p>Thousands of Purdue students, especially the good writers, come to the OWL because they know it's useful to talk about what they're writing and to get feedback. Writers bring in papers from courses in biology, engineering, political science, technology, communications, and many other courses besides English. They also come in to work on resumes and job applications, internship and co-op reports, or any other writing task they're working on, including papers for graduate seminars. We help Purdue students, faculty, staff, and even those learning English as a second language. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Meet the Purdue Owl Consultants:  </p>

<p>Jacqueline Borchert (she/her) is a Professional Writing Specialist at OWL. Jacqueline comes from the world of education, where she has taught at every level: preschool, middle school, and English Language Learner. Her current research focuses on multiracial identity, scholar activism, and respectability politics. She has two pups named Eevee and Vulpix (Pixie). In her free time, she enjoys reading (science fiction, social justice nonfiction, romantasy) and watching/playing DND. </p>

<p>Other writing consultants to be announced.  </p>

A little about me: I love coffee (dreaming of opening my own shop!), traveling (visited all 50 U.S. states), vlogging on YouTube, baking, and exploring new places. Feel free to stop by - I’m here for you! </p>

<p>Tuesdays | 3-5pm  | AAARCC (915 5th St.) </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Stop by for support from the On-Campus Writing Lab to begin a project, review a draft,
<br />or improve your organization and writing skills! Visit the AAARCC on Tuesdays from 3-5pm to chat with OWL Writing Consultants. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments are encouraged, so sign-up at owl.purdue.edu </p>

<p> </p>

<p>How does Purdue OWL help students? </p>

<p>Thousands of Purdue students, especially the good writers, come to the OWL because they know it's useful to talk about what they're writing and to get feedback. Writers bring in papers from courses in biology, engineering, political science, technology, communications, and many other courses besides English. They also come in to work on resumes and job applications, internship and co-op reports, or any other writing task they're working on, including papers for graduate seminars. We help Purdue students, faculty, staff, and even those learning English as a second language. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Meet the Purdue Owl Consultants:  </p>

<p>Jacqueline Borchert (she/her) is a Professional Writing Specialist at OWL. Jacqueline comes from the world of education, where she has taught at every level: preschool, middle school, and English Language Learner. Her current research focuses on multiracial identity, scholar activism, and respectability politics. She has two pups named Eevee and Vulpix (Pixie). In her free time, she enjoys reading (science fiction, social justice nonfiction, romantasy) and watching/playing DND. </p>

<p>Other writing consultants to be announced.  </p>
