AI and Writing

Generative AI writing technologies such as ChatGPT are important to the discussion of how students think about and approach writing. The Writing Center will work with you on developing your assignments based on what is expected from your instructor. Some instructors and assignments may encourage and expect you to use AI tools, and some may discourage you from using any AI tools.

We want to help you to continue to develop your writing skills, think about how to best utilize tools and technology, and make sure that you are completing work in a manner respectful of individual instructors’ rules, guidelines, and expectations.

For assignments that do encourage AI usage, we want you to consider how you can ethically and responsibly use these tools.
