Submit papers to writingtutor@lanecc.edu for feedback

Submit your written draft on any subject to writingtutor@lanecc.edu , and receive written feedback in two business days! What to know:

  • Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to incorporate feedback and make revisions before your assignment is due.
  • Please include assignment instructions and any other relevant materials or context.
  • To ensure accessibility and timely feedback, change sharing settings for Google Docs to “anyone with the link.” (Google Doc submissions can be helpful because they enable comments within the document.)

  • Revise and resubmit drafts as many times as you like (though please make each paper a separate submission).

SPA presents play about feeling lost, June 2 and 3

 

Written by Annie Baker and directed by Sarah Peterson, SPA’s spring play is The Aliens. This play follows Jasper and KJ, two friends who spend time behind a coffee shop. When Evan, the coffee shop worker, tries to make them leave, he falls for their charm and the three set out on an adventure. The production will take place June 2-3, 2023 at 7:30 p.m. at The Blue Door Theater at LCC’s Main Campus. The address is 4000 E. 30th Ave, Eugene, OR 97405.
