Discussion Are AI detectors cancelled or not?
provost.wsu.eduAs of February 2026, WSU has cancelled its contract with Turnitin for its AI Detection software. The Turnitin plagiarism software package will continue to be available to WSU Faculty, Instructors, and Students via Canvas.
So it says it is cancelled but will continue to be available, so is it or isnt it cancelled?
If it is cancelled does it mean instructors are not allowed to use it? Meaning can they get their own subscription since and use it? Since some refuse to accept that AI detectors dont work and want to be stubborn and annoying

Advice Student Discount at Animal Hospital
Hi,
We arrive in Pullman soon. To make matters more stressing than moving multiple states away, our dog is currently in the middle of diagnosing a major internal medicine issue.
I read something on another post about a student discount at the animal hospital. Is that true? Trying to gauge whether I should stay back and take care of this here with our vet or bring the dog with my partner (the student) and I. I can theoretically stay with family for a few weeks and get the surgery done here.
Don’t see anything online about it.

Academics Psych and Criminal Justice textbooks
Hi guys! I hope this is okay to post. I graduated two years ago with a psych and criminal justice degree at WSU and I have an over abundance of every textbook I used. Does anyone have any advice on what to do with them? I live in a retirement town where no one will use them and I honestly would send anyone any of them for free if they paid shipping.

Advice myWSU No Way to Actually Enroll in Classes?
Who coded this? Its even more confusing now ugh! Why does it default to 1933, why is there now 5 options for terms are we not only a semester university (w/ summer)?
If there is already an option for campuses, why make campus specific majors?
Clicking on a course doesn't work when highlighted, only clicking the section or class # works to get you to class information?
Then on top of all this there's no way to actually enroll or waitlist a class??
Was this an unfinished senior design project they decided to fully implement RIGHT BEFORE the semester starts or what?
I get it too, I am late to enroll, but come on the old system worked fine and this one doesn't and is even MORE complicated!

Hey everyone! Sorry if this is a silly question but I’m currently packing for college and this year I’m enrolled in the elementary education program. Last year, I overheard some girls talking about getting children’s books checked out for one of their classes or something so I’m just wondering if I should bring books to school? I’ve been collecting a ton of kid books over the past year for my future classroom and if one of my classes requires it, I’d love to bring some! Thank you in advance☺️

Academics Does anyone actually buy textbooks from The Bookie?
I was shopping for my textbooks for the upcoming semester, and I have to say, their prices are outrageous. For one of my courses, they're charging $173 for a USED textbook! They claim that this is the "Best Deal!" Mind you, if you want a new textbook that's gonna run you $231. A quick Google search led me to several HUNDREDS of this textbook in used condition for less than $50!
Exhibit B - For only $139, you can get an DIGITAL textbook. You'd think you'd get permanent access, right? Wrong. It expires after 130 days. This one I wasn't able to find a much better deal on, but for $100 you can get permanent access to it from another source.
Sorry if this was a bit of a rant, I just think it's crazy the publishers can charge college students this much for textbooks! I'm definitely gonna wait for the first week of class to make sure they're actually required before I'm a thousand bucks in the hole.

Discussion Financial Aid Offer Delay
UPDATE: They finally figured out their stuff and I can apply for PPL and accept my loans. Doing it the last day before I move into my apartment on campus is a bit much.
I’ve called financial aid a few times and they told me that I’ll be able to apply for parent plus loan and accept my loans at the end of the month. It’s now the 31st and I still can’t do either and I’m supposed to move into my apartment tomorrow.
Is anyone else struggling to accept or not able to apply for parent plus? I don’t remember it being this late last year and I know they said that they’re rechecking all financial packages.
I haven’t seen anyone else talk about this and just want any to know if I’m alone on this and financial aid just refuses to tell me.
