A student asks their college advisor to meticulously edit their personal essay, correcting all grammar, punctuation, and syntax errors, implying they want it 'perfected.' What is the most ethically appropriate response from the advisor?
✓ Correct Answer: Option B
The essay must be the student's original work. The advisor's ethical role is to guide the student in identifying and improving their own writing, not to 'fix' it for them, which could compromise authenticity.
