Most times, students aren’t well informed about the resources that their college campus has available for them. There are campus resources that cater to specific needs that students may face throughout their college years and yet they aren’t made aware of them. Here are some of the many resources that Sacramento State Hornets should know about!
1. Student Health and Counseling Services (SHCS)

As college students, writing essays and formal papers always include some form of getting feedback for revision. The Writing Center is a great place to have tutors look over your reading or writing assignments. Tutors are students who have completed ENGL195A/410A and the Writing Center Internship course, so you can trust that these tutors know what they are doing. Located at Calaveras 128, the Writing Center is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. from Monday to Thursday and 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Friday.
