Since 2001 the Live Oak Writing Project (LOWP) has been a collaborative program of The University of Southern Mississippi on the Coast and Mississippi coastal schools dedicated to improving writing and the teaching of writing at all grades and across all disciplines.

The project focuses on the teaching of writing for practicing teachers while providing a model for ongoing professional development that builds independent local programs.

The Live Oak Writing Project is located on the University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast interim campus location at the HealthMark Center in Gulfport in room 119. Contact us at 228.214.3288 or fax us at 228.214.3372.
