As an equal opportunity institution, the University of Maine Writing Center exercises the right to honor personal pronoun preference in our composition and publication to avoid gender biased and exclusive language. In accordance with the University's Nondiscrimination Policy and Nonsexist Language Policy, this includes a student's right to their personal pronoun preferences: (she/her, he/his, ze/zir, they/their), and includes the use of they as a singular pronoun and ze/zir pronouns.
The University of Maine Writing Center works with all students and faculty on any kind of composition at any point in the process. Our mission is to create a lasting and positive relationship between writers and their writing through peer-to-peer collaboration.
We are a Safe Zone certified learning space committed to empowering and energizing all writer’s identities.
