Our students say
“The writing center has a great video and audio feature now. I highly encourage everyone to to try at least once!”
“When I first started the MSEd program in Higher Education Administration, it had been many years since I had been in my previous graduate program. I made use of the Baruch Writing Center for my first assignment and now I have book-ended my studies with a visit to work on my Capstone Personal Statement. This is an extremely valuable resource that allows one to be better no matter what level they are at.”
“I was always afraid and hesitant to book an appointment because I did not feel like a strong writer. Within my one hour session my confidence in my writing changed completely. I felt more sure of what I was doing and learned new techniques to spot and fix my own mistakes. The time goes by really quickly and I am so happy that I went. The staff is very friendly, understanding, and kind.”

A journal of student work, The Lexington Review features model texts and writing guides. We welcome submissions year-round.
