Not entirely wrong or anything but did you flip the main and sub clauses?

Thank you, professor. We made this anthology with gratitude.

It may just be my English, but would you use "anthology" to refer to a collection of writings by a group of students (who would most likely be amateurs)?

deal with the problem > discuss the issues.

駅まで３０分ほどかかるが、天気のいい日は運動がてら 歩くことにしている。
It's about 30 minutes to the station, but it's good weather, so I've decided to get some exercise as I walk there.

Not terribly wrong, but the original says that you make this a habit for sunny days. The tense of "I've decided to" is incorrect.
～～ことにしている = I make it a habit to ~~
おそろしい

Examples:
断りなしに人の部屋に入るな。
Do not enter the room of a person who has refused [entry].

Finally a serious mistake! This 断り does not mean "refusal" but it means "notice" or "asking for permission".
Now, 「断りなしに」 should make much more sense to you.
And 人の部屋, in this context, means "my room". Advanced learners MUST learn to use this 人 as a first-person pronoun. See Usage #8 in the link below.
