Should I assign work in my seminar–reading, writing, other projects? How much work?

Franklin | First-Year Seminars
First-year seminars are supposed to be academic in nature and of substance. The answer, then, is yes: if you would make such assignments in your normal academic courses, then you should do so in a first-year seminar, making allowances, of course, for the fact that this course is only a one-hour course, and that it is offered to first-year students.

How long will it take for the Writing Center to respond to my posting?

faqs
The WC's response will not be instantaneous. The tutors will usually respond within 1-4 days, but if they are extremely overwhelmed with postings, you may have to wait longer. As long as you send your assignment to them by the due date listed in your syllabus, you will get credit for the assignment. Please note that the COW deletes all messages on a bi-monthly basis, so you must check the site frequently for a tutor's response to your message.

How can I prepare myself for my visit to the writing center?

SU-University Writing Center-faq
A hard copy of your work-in-progress is helpful when attending a session (although we do have a few computers and a printer that you may use). It is also useful to bring along a copy of the prompt or the assignment if your professor gave you one. Also, please give some thought to what you would like to focus on during your session. This will give you and your consultant a starting point for your consultation, and it will help the two of you use your 30-minute-session most efficiently.
