College students, professors are making their own AI rules. They don't always agree
English professor Dan Cryer believes that using generative AI for writing college essays undermines the educational process, as it prevents students from developing critical thinking and writing skills. Conversely, Leslie Clement and other educators see AI as a valuable tool that, when used responsibly, can enhance learning and help students engage with complex subjects, while students like Anjali Tatini and Hannah Elder emphasize the importance of maintaining personal ownership of their work.
