Distance student?

If you are a distance education student -- you live more than 30 miles from campus and do not have any on-campus classes -- you are welcome to use our Document Delivery service. 

When requesting an item, enter in the Notes field that you are a Distance Ed student, along with your mailing address to have items (from Whitewater or from another campus) sent to your home address for free. (You will be responsible for the item’s postage, shipped with a tracking number, or delivery back to Andersen Library for returns.

What is Scholarly Writing?

Scholarly, or academic, writing is something that will be expected of you in your DBA classes. This kind of writing is of the same quality you would find in the journal articles you read during your research. The tone will be formal, the content will be concise. 

Check out Purdue OWL's page on Academic Writing for an overview of establishing arguments, being concise, adding emphasis and more.

If you would like some in-person help with drafting your ideas, organization, or editing a draft, schedule an appointment with the UWW Writing Center
