WEST Workshop: Revision!
Is this the semester when you stop letting your first draft be your final draft? When you actually have the time to revise and edit your paper for class? Does your instructor keep telling you to revise your work, and you’re just not sure what they want? WEST, the Writing Excellence Studio at Tech, is here to help! At 1:00 on Friday, 4/11, we will be leading a workshop on revision strategies. We will talk about organization, how to see your work with new eyes, how to focus on cohesion and flow, and all sorts of useful things that will help you revise your papers like a professional writer. The workshop will be in Henderson Hall 304B, from 1:00-2:00. No registration is required, and all are welcome! And if you can’t make the workshop, come for a one-on-one session with one of our consultants. For availability and scheduling, check out our website. We look forward to working with you!

We display our collection every April during Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

Student Absence Notifications via Maxient
A new electronic process for delivering student absence notifications is now in place. If a student absence notification request is approved, the student’s faculty will receive a notice via email with a link to the absence memorandum.
Please note these emails originate from notifications@maxient.com. Student Affairs has worked with ITS to ensure these communications bypass Tech’s email filters so they will not appear in clutter or junk folders. The Maxient emails will contain the following:
-
- Subject line “Student Affairs Absence Notification,”
-
- Body text indicating the emails are official correspondence from the Student Affairs Office, and
- Branded with the Student Affairs seal.
As always, faculty members are welcome to contact the Student Affairs Office at studentaffairs@tntech.edu or 931-372-3411 if they have questions regarding these communications.
For more information, please visit the Student Absence Notifications page on the Student Affairs website.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we transition to a new notification system.
