    Old text

    U-M leaves GenAI policy to individual instructors, who may allow, restrict, or forbid AI use in their courses. Course policies should be clearly articulated in syllabi.

    New text

    U-M guidance gives instructors flexibility to allow or disallow GenAI by course and assessment, with clear syllabus and assignment expectations; course policies should align with applicable school or college misconduct policies.

    Record addition

    Added

    U-M sample syllabi allow instructors to specify GenAI disclosure, restrictions, or bans by activity, in alignment with college policy; examples are not automatically binding campus-wide rules.

    Old text

    U-M requires using approved ITS AI Services for university data. Only data classified as Low may be used with AI services lacking a U-M contract or data agreement.

    New text

    U-M directs community members to approved AI services for institutional data. Services without a U-M contract or data agreement should only receive Low-classified institutional data. U-M Google guidance allows certain sensitive categories only as detailed in the service guide; the authenticated matrix remains unavailable.

    Old text

    U-M advises students that data shared with external AI tools is not private and may be accessible by external parties. Students should not share private or sensitive information.

    New text

    U-M cautions students that, in most cases, data entered into external GenAI tools are not private and may be accessible to their providers, and advises against sharing private or sensitive information.

    Site correction

    Site conclusion text changes
    Old text

    U-M ITS AI Services include HIPAA safeguards and may be used with Protected Health Information (PHI).

    New text

    ITS states that its AI Services include HIPAA safeguards and may be used with PHI, and explicitly directs users to the service-specific Sensitive Data Guide for permitted types. The authenticated guide was not revalidated; this is not blanket PHI authorization.

    Record addition

    Added

    U-M ITS AI data are not used for model training, but service input, prompt history, usage metadata and logs are processed, including sharing prompt data with cloud vendors. The notice does not establish a uniform retention period.

    Old text

    U-M ITS offers a generative AI platform available to all active U-M faculty, staff, and students on the Ann Arbor, Flint, and Dearborn campuses and Michigan Medicine, with service offerings described as equitable and accessible.

    New text

    U-M ITS offers a generative AI platform to active faculty, staff, and students across its campuses and Michigan Medicine, subject to the ITS AI Services terms that limit use to within the United States.

    Record addition

    Added

    ITS AI service and Google services have a U.S.-only usage condition under U-M terms (May 2025).

    Record addition

    Added

    U-M Google Gemini and Gemini Notebook (formerly NotebookLM) exclude sponsored affiliates, alumni and retirees; supported sensitive data vary by approved guide.

    Research & publication · Records involved: 1 (1 added)

    Record addition

    Added

    OVPR internal peer-review guidance updated August 11, 2025 discourages generative AI reviewing and strongly discourages uploading other researchers’ grant proposals to commercial AI tools.

    Academic integrity · Records involved: 6 (6 added)

    Record addition

    Added

    An LSA student found responsible may submit a written appeal to the Academic Judiciary Committee within two weeks from the date of the resolution letter, challenging responsibility, the college sanction or both. Grounds include serious procedural error, significant previously unavailable evidence or excessive college sanctions. Sanctions remain during appeal. Discrimination/prohibited-behavior claims must also go to ECRT and pause appeal. AJC may reverse responsibility or recommend keeping, reducing or increasing sanctions.

    Record addition

    Added

    For another school’s student in an LSA course, SAA determines the course integrity violation and instructor course sanction authority; the student’s home school imposes college sanctions, including any recommendations it accepts.

    Record addition

    Added

    In LSA SAA Resolution, the Coordinator of Academic Integrity or designee decides under the preponderance standard. Students receive allegations/evidence and may respond, present material and ask questions. Students should notify SAA when bringing a support person. The usual Honor Council participant does not advocate for or against the student.

    Record addition

    Added

    In LSA, course-grade penalties follow the instructor’s syllabus/department policies; SAA may assign college sanctions including probation, reflective essay, suspension or expulsion. These are possible outcomes, not an automatic AI penalty.

    Record addition

    Added

    LSA instructors may use Instructor Resolution for non-egregious incidents meriting no consequence greater than zero on the assignment; remedial work may also apply. SAA Resolution is appropriate for possible course failure or more severe sanctions, previous responsibility findings, or falsified academic documents. While pending, students are presumed not responsible, may attend class, cannot drop/change grading option, and instructors may not impose penalties/remedial work. A pending end-of-term case may receive NR and prevents course credit/graduation.

    Record addition

    Added

    ITS does not provide a campus-wide teaching/learning plagiarism checking system. Detector output can trigger inquiry but is not definitive proof, while iThenticate is described for researchers’ own work, not student evaluation.

    U-M does not recommend the use of AI-detection technology given their high error rate. False positives and negatives are possible, and even likely.

    Record addition

    Added

    The School of Nursing faculty guide advises that AI should not be the sole basis for grading and restricts uploads of identifiable student work unless the service and use are approved.

    Site correction

    Site conclusion text changes
    Old text

    U-M requires that AI-generated computer code is always reviewed by a human, with professionally trained peer code reviews for applications handling Restricted or High data.

    New text

    U-M guidance calls for human review of AI-generated code and professionally trained peer code reviews for all new or significantly changed applications, particularly those handling Restricted or High data.

    Record addition

    Added

    Procurement Services should be the sole purchaser for AI services intended for institutional Moderate, High, or Restricted data; access alone does not confer approval for each sensitive data type.
