Release-to-release tracker diff with separate policy-text, newly-extracted claim, evidence, and source snapshot categories.

Change summary

Current public record freshness and review state.

McGill University currently has 5 source-backed claim records and 5 official source attributions. Latest tracked changed date: May 10, 2026. No tracker diff rows are recorded in the latest public release.

This tracker is not legal advice, not academic integrity advice, and not an official university statement unless a linked source is the university's own official page.

Newly extracted claims are tracker additions and are not necessarily newly published by the university. Source snapshot changes show hash changes for the same source URL and are not by themselves policy changes.

teaching

McGill recommends that instructors explain to students in their course outline what the appropriate use or non-use is of generative AI tools in the context of that course. The use or non-use of these tools should align with the learning outcomes associated with the course.

academic_integrity

McGill's Provost-endorsed principles state that instructors remain responsible for comporting themselves according to the highest standards of academic integrity in their use of generative AI tools. Instructors must be explicit in course outlines about the expectations for use of generative AI tools and may set limits on their use in assessment tasks.
