Currently enrolled JSOM undergraduate, graduate and PhD students may attend the BCC. Tutors are full and part-time professionals with writing center experience. The BCC may occasionally hire student workers with exemplary written and verbal communication skills.
Although tutors are not content experts, they are skilled writers with training in tutoring, so they are able to help students with communication issues that do not require advanced subject knowledge. In addition to providing valuable communication services for all JSOM students, the BCC offers additional support for students for whom English is a second language or an additional language. A specialist works with these students on grammar, word choice, sentence structure, punctuation, and effective PowerPoint slides and presentation techniques.
