Join us for a conversation with Melissa Backus, Associate Director Office of Student Conduct and Julie Peters, Director of the Carey Library at the School of Management and Labor Relations about academic integrity and AI usage. Over the past year, many of us have experienced an uptick in academic integrity violations due to student AI usage. Whether it be the use of generative AI to complete writing assignments, the fabrication of sources from AI generated searches, or the use of AI to complete important equations, problems and assignments needed to complete course learning goals, students have been turning to AI in ways that could often violate our university Academic Integrity Policy.

Melissa Backus and Julie Peters will share the trends they have witnessed in student AI use, as well as strategies to discuss academic integrity and AI with your students. We will also review our Academic Integrity Policy, the reporting process, and the role of Academic Integrity Facilitators in your respective departments. As midterms, papers, and finals are still on the horizon, we encourage you to join us for this important conversation. Bring your own questions, ideas, and strategies for this collaborative dialogue.
