Confidentiality

Is what writers discuss with a Writing Center tutor kept confidential?
Not entirely.  Tutors do not discuss your writing or tutoring sessions outside of the Writing Center; however, when asked, the Director of the Writing Center shares information about specific tutorials with Concordia faculty and staff. Tutors and student assistants who work for the Writing Center or for members of the Writing Center staff do enter general information about tutorials into a database, but this information is used in aggregate form only, primarily as a basis for improving and expanding future Writing Center services. If you have questions about the Writing Center's confidentiality policy or use of student information, please contact the Director, Lisa Whalen, at whalen@csp.edu.
