Writings about Our Fictitious Patron Saint, Hermione
The Catholic Church does have a saint named Hermione. She was a physician and martyr who lived in Caesarea in the first century A.D.. The Catholic Church's St. Hermione is not, however, the University Writing Center's St. Hermione. Please note that all the writings listed below refer
to a completely fictitious patron saint of writing tutors and writing utensils. Conjured from the creative minds of our student tutors, our St. Hermione provides us with an example of what a great tutor should be as well as our very own phony holiday to honor
her.
