The Academic
Support Center (ASC) was started in the Fall of 2000 with
monies provided from a grant from the Luce Foundation.
ASC assists
students, faculty and staff with the various aspects of academic
writing, critical analysis, study skills, and reading. We
can also assist with professional papers, resumes, and reports.
Throughout the semester, ASC conducts workshops
including ones on organization, documentation styles, plagiarism,
senior Statements of faith, t
and the Ordination Exams.
The
service is free.
Current Status of Center
For each of the last three years more than 400 students have
visited our Center for assistance. Considering our full time
student population is around 120, the Center works with most
students and some students on a weekly basis. We occasionally attend
classes and conduct “mini” workshops—usually
on plagiarism or documentation issues. We also offer workshops
throughout the year such as “Learning to Critically
Analyze,” “Reading Smarter,” “Test
Anxiety”, “Study Skills,” and APA and Chicago
documentation styles. . Between
working with students individually, conducting workshops,
and visiting classes the Center is in individual contact with
at least 90% of the school population each semester.
The Center also works specifically with students whose first language is not English and with students who have physical or learning diferences.
If you
need help, please call us at extension 384, e-mail us kmapes@lpts.edu, or sacconti@lpts.edu
or better yet just drop in. We are located on the first floor of Schlegel
Hall.
