Why are some classes required to meet weekly with tutors but others are not?
If you are required to meet weekly with Writing and Reading Center (WRC) tutors, your placement essay indicated that you needed extra writing support. Therefore you were placed in a English 101 sections with other writers who could benefit from similar support. The WRC service is free, and you should look at this requirement as an opportunity to improve your writing and expand your critical reading skills. Doing so will help you write and read better in all of your classes. Remember also that the WRC is not just a place for remedial writers. Writers of all levels and abilities go there for feedback, including graduate students and faculty. Even if you did not place in a supported section of English 101, we encourage you to make appointments with the Center to talk over your writing with a tutor. For more information on the WRC, please visit them in the Group I building on the second floor.
