Writing Center Discussion

Speaking of Writing Centers... UNM has CAPS for general tutoring, and the College of Education has a Graduate Student Writing Center (that caters only to the coe graduate students). I've yet to hear of a student having a good experience getting writing help at CAPS. It's a big hole here at UNM. There are a couple of options... one is to lobby for and build a writing center from scratch (not the best choice), the other is to partner in some way with CAPS to attach a writing center to their program with its own tutoring pedagogy practices separate from CAPS. You cannot tutor writing the same way you tutor math. Any suggestions? Does anyone know who has responsibility for CAPS?
