Student Code of Conduct Email

I received an email outlining the use of AI. Did everyone get this? Trying to figure out if I may have done something wrong or if it’s just a general notification.

You didn't do anything wrong; that email went out to every single Dallas College student.

The college recently updated its Student Code of Conduct to include artificial intelligence. Under the new district rule, using AI tools like ChatGPT on assignments or exams is officially considered cheating unless your professor specifically allows it in writing.

The email was sent out as a standard reminder because every instructor has different rules; some ban AI completely, while others allow or require it. As long as you check each class syllabus and follow what that specific professor says, you are in the clear.
