As final exams approach, Michigan StateUniversity students are utilizing the MSU Writing Center for their papers or projects.

Nicole Gaukel, a student majoring in English at MSU, usually uses the MSU Writing Center service for her papers. “I enjoy using this service. I go to the Writing Center once or twice every two weeks,” said Gaukel. She said she can revise her papers with the perspectives of experts. “Sometimes, I can’t see my problem on my papers, but if I ask consultants to revise them, they can see those papers from different perspectives,” she said.

Rachel Hwang, a student majoring in theatre at MSU, utilizes the MSU Writing Center for her acting class papers. She said she got lots of help from consultants, but sometimes, she met some unkind consultants. Hwang said when she met unfriendly consultants, they didn’t look carefully at her paper. “I can’t discern whether a consultant is friendly or not by reading consultant’s introduction,” she said. “I hope the system allow students to evaluate consultants they’ve met, and make students to see ratings before they make appointments.”
