- Students should behave in a professional and courteous manner. Anyone who violates this may have their Writing Center privileges revoked. Consultants may end or leave sessions if a student is violating our policies or the UM Creed.
- You must be wearing appropriate attire when using the chat. Make sure you are dressed in a manner that would be considered appropriate to attend class.
- Please be prepared when you enter the chat. You can provide a short piece of writing, an assignment description, or a list of questions to talk through. Even though this is not an appointment based service, it is important that you bring ideas for what you want to cover. Our consultants respect your time, so please respect theirs.
- The quick question service is not a “drop off” service. In other words, you must be present and participate in the chat consistently or the consultant may end your session.
- Do not count on the walk-in service for a last-minute concern. Always plan your time accordingly and give yourself time before an assignment is due.
- Please see our Policies page for more information.
