Academic Honesty & Plagiarism | Student Manual | The University of Chicago
The use of artificial intelligence (AI; including Large Language Models and related technologies) writing and research tools may or may not constitute academic dishonesty, depending on the rules for AI use established by the instructor of record. Any doubts about what constitutes appropriate use should be addressed to the instructor.
Whether AI writing and research tools constitute academic dishonesty depends on the instructor of record’s rules. Students should address doubts about appropriate use to that instructor.
Always refer to the instructors’ guidance on when and how generative artificial intelligence may be used in course work. Instructors may opt to limit or otherwise specify when AI tools are and are not permitted. AI usage policies may vary from course to course. Always follow the instructors’ guidance and if you are unclear about what is allowed, please ask your instructor for clarification.
UChicago student guidance requires students to follow the instructor’s rules on when and how AI may be used in coursework. Course policies may differ; students should ask when unclear.

b) For all work that a student submits for any form of academic credit, AI may not be used, whether with or without attribution, in a way that would constitute academic plagiarism if the AI were a human author whose work was used without attribution . Commentary: The crux of this policy, which applies in any context in which a student submits work for evaluation, is the application of existing academic integrity policies.

4.9 Law School Policy on Generative AI | University of Chicago Law School
a) For exams, unless the instructor specifies otherwise, the use of generative AI is absolutely prohibited in any exam. Commentary: Students must not prompt or engage with generative AI in any way during an exam and (as was always the case) every word of the exam answer must be produced by the student themselves during the exam period. This default prohibition does not extend to the use of generative AI when studying for an exam, so long as it does not violate any other aspect of this policy. For example, while preparing an outline in advance of an exam, a student could ask tools like ChatGPT for the holding of Marbury v. Madison or for a list of arguments for and

The use of artificial intelligence (AI; including Large Language Models and related technologies) writing and research tools may or may not constitute academic dishonesty, depending on the rules for AI use established by the instructor of record. Any doubts about what constitutes appropriate use should be addressed to the instructor.
Whether AI writing and research tools constitute academic dishonesty depends on the instructor of record’s rules. Students should address doubts about appropriate use to that instructor.
AI detectors, including Pangram, are not perfect, though research from Booth faculty Brian Jabarian and Alex Imas indicates that Pangram is the best tool available (Jabarian & Imas, 2025). Accordingly, instructors and the Office of College Community Standards may use Pangram as one source of supporting information in a transparent, human-led academic integrity process and to guide conversations with students suspected of inappropriate AI use. OCCS is available to assist instructors in interpreting and weighing the results of a Pangram analysis.
College guidance recognises AI detectors are imperfect. Instructors and OCCS may use Pangram as supporting information in a transparent, human-led academic integrity process and student conversations; it is not automatic proof of misconduct. Unit policies and instructor choices may differ.
Particular schools, divisions, and programs may have specific policies or guidance on whether or how to use Pangram. In some areas of the College, instructors have individual discretion to set the rules about AI use in their courses and to decide whether to use Pangram. Not all instructors will choose to use Pangram.
College guidance recognises AI detectors are imperfect. Instructors and OCCS may use Pangram as supporting information in a transparent, human-led academic integrity process and student conversations; it is not automatic proof of misconduct. Unit policies and instructor choices may differ.
The goal of the College disciplinary system is to ensure a fair and orderly process for fact gathering and decision-making regarding matters of possible student misconduct. In this undertaking, the OCCS, the Committee or the Subcommittee (as applicable) make no assumptions or presumptions, including about the credibility or culpability of the parties to the proceeding or witnesses. Neither the respondent nor the complainant bears the responsibility of proving or disproving allegations, and it is the role of OCCS, the Committee or Subcommittee (as applicable) to gather and/or evaluate information, apply an unbiased and transparent process, and determine by a preponderance
The College disciplinary process must not presume credibility or culpability. OCCS or the relevant committee gathers and evaluates information and determines responsibility by a preponderance of evidence. This is a general procedure, not an automatic AI penalty.

Students who have been sanctioned with disciplinary probation are also permanently ineligible for on-campus academic jobs including teaching assistant (TA) and proctor. Students on disciplinary probation are not considered to be in good standing. Any additional violations of policy while on probation will be referred to the
Harris disciplinary probation entails specified restrictions on emergency scholarship funding and Career Development/HarrisLink services, permanent ineligibility for on-campus academic jobs such as TA/proctor, and loss of good standing. Further violations during probation are referred to the Area committee. These are general sanction consequences, not automatic penalties for AI use.

Each academic unit—the College, graduate divisions, professional schools, and the Graham School—has written procedures for student discipline. Those procedures may be obtained from the Office of the Dean of Students of the academic unit. General procedures for area discipline follow the outline of the procedures described below.
Academic units have their own written disciplinary procedures; the central Area page provides a general outline. College students must use the separately published College process and Harris students must check Harris rules. General sanctions do not establish an automatic penalty for AI use.
In situations where an individual student has acknowledged responsibility for misconduct and the most likely outcome for that misconduct would be a sanction of warning or disciplinary probation if the Area Disciplinary Committee were to be convened, the area Dean of Students (or designee) may offer to resolve the allegation of misconduct administratively without referral to an Area Disciplinary Committee. In such matters, the area Dean of Students can propose the sanction of an official warning or place the student on disciplinary probation for a specified period of time (e.g., a quarter, a year, for the duration of the student’s enrollment, etc.). The student will be
Under the general Area process, where a student acknowledges responsibility and warning/probation is the likely outcome, the Dean may offer administrative resolution. The student may accept or reject in writing; acceptance is final and unreviewable within the University except if new material information leads to withdrawal and committee referral. This is not an automatic AI penalty.

Only the Area Disciplinary Committee may impose a disciplinary suspension. During the period of suspension the student is barred from all University property, absent written permission from the Area Dean of Students, and is prohibited from exercising any rights and privileges of a student in the University. Unless the Area Disciplinary Committee specifically states otherwise in its decision, at the expiration of the period of suspension the student may resume active status as a student without any action on their part other than what would be required of any student who has, for a comparable period, interrupted their residence in the University for any other reason.
Under the general Area sanctions framework, only the Area Disciplinary Committee may suspend or expel a student; it may recommend revocation for misconduct before degree conferral. These are possible general sanctions, not fixed AI-use penalties or College-specific procedural deadlines.

Instructors have flexibility to set policy for the use of AI in their classes. The Law School sets a default for use of AI, but each instructor can set their own policies. 3. Deviations from the default policy shall be stated in writing in the syllabus posted on Canvas for the class. The goal of this aspect of the policy is to ensure that all parties have advance notice of the policies that apply to them, and that those policies are as clear as practicable.
Faculty and instructors will specify their policies and expectations regarding the use of AI through a syllabus statement. In the absence of such a statement, the assumption will be that any use of generative AI in the class is prohibited.

b) For all work that a student submits for any form of academic credit, AI may not be used, whether with or without attribution, in a way that would constitute academic plagiarism if the AI were a human author whose work was used without attribution . Commentary: The crux of this policy, which applies in any context in which a student submits work for evaluation, is the application of existing academic integrity policies. Thus, some but not all uses of AI in preparing work to submit for a class would violate this default policy. Using AI to brainstorm ideas for a paper—akin to asking a search engine (like Google), professors, or professional contacts for
Law §4.9(1)(b); normalized extracted text; Unicode codepoints 7818:8480
suggestions—would not violate this default policy. Nor would using AI for proofreading. The principle here is that if AI is performing a task that other technologies (or people) currently perform, and such uses are not a violation of academic integrity, then those uses of AI do not violate the default policy. In contrast, using AI to compose part or all of a paper, or copying or paraphrasing output from AI and passing it off as one’s own writing, would violate this default policy. The same principle applies here: if AI is performing a task that other technologies (or people) currently perform, and such uses are a violation of academic integrity, then those uses of AI do
Law §4.9(1)(b); normalized extracted text; Unicode codepoints 8481:9159
violate the default policy. The default policy sweeps more broadly than a prohibition against academic plagiarism, however. A student cannot avoid limits on the use of AI that would otherwise apply by attributing their work to AI. It is not plagiarism to copy or paraphrase another’s work, so long as one properly cites that source. But under the default policy, the use of AI with or without attribution is compared to the use of a human-created source without attribution . Thus, using AI to compose all or part of a paper, even if the use of generative AI is fully documented in properly placed footnotes , is a violation of the default policy.

AI detectors, including Pangram, are not perfect, though research from Booth faculty Brian Jabarian and Alex Imas indicates that Pangram is the best tool available (Jabarian & Imas, 2025). Accordingly, instructors and the Office of College Community Standards may use Pangram as one source of supporting information in a transparent, human-led academic integrity process and to guide conversations with students suspected of inappropriate AI use.

Under the Law School default, AI use in submitted work is compared to unattributed use of a human author’s work. Some uses such as brainstorming or proofreading can comply; AI composing all or part of a paper violates the default even with attribution.

Original evidence
Evidence 1
b) For all work that a student submits for any form of academic credit, AI may not be used, whether with or without attribution, in a way that would constitute academic plagiarism if the AI were a human author whose work was used without attribution . Commentary: The crux of this policy, which applies in any context in which a student submits work for evaluation, is the application of existing academic integrity policies. Thus, some but not all uses of AI in preparing work to submit for a class would violate this default policy. Using AI to brainstorm ideas for a paper—akin to asking a search engine (like Google), professors, or professional contacts for
suggestions—would not violate this default policy. Nor would using AI for proofreading. The principle here is that if AI is performing a task that other technologies (or people) currently perform, and such uses are not a violation of academic integrity, then those uses of AI do not violate the default policy. In contrast, using AI to compose part or all of a paper, or copying or paraphrasing output from AI and passing it off as one’s own writing, would violate this default policy. The same principle applies here: if AI is performing a task that other technologies (or people) currently perform, and such uses are a violation of academic integrity, then those uses of AI do
violate the default policy. The default policy sweeps more broadly than a prohibition against academic plagiarism, however. A student cannot avoid limits on the use of AI that would otherwise apply by attributing their work to AI. It is not plagiarism to copy or paraphrase another’s work, so long as one properly cites that source. But under the default policy, the use of AI with or without attribution is compared to the use of a human-created source without attribution . Thus, using AI to compose all or part of a paper, even if the use of generative AI is fully documented in properly placed footnotes , is a violation of the default policy.
College guidance recognises AI detectors are imperfect. Instructors and OCCS may use Pangram as supporting information in a transparent, human-led academic integrity process and student conversations; it is not automatic proof of misconduct. Unit policies and instructor choices may differ.

Evidence 1
AI detectors, including Pangram, are not perfect, though research from Booth faculty Brian Jabarian and Alex Imas indicates that Pangram is the best tool available (Jabarian & Imas, 2025). Accordingly, instructors and the Office of College Community Standards may use Pangram as one source of supporting information in a transparent, human-led academic integrity process and to guide conversations with students suspected of inappropriate AI use. OCCS is available to assist instructors in interpreting and weighing the results of a Pangram analysis.
Particular schools, divisions, and programs may have specific policies or guidance on whether or how to use Pangram. In some areas of the College, instructors have individual discretion to set the rules about AI use in their courses and to decide whether to use Pangram. Not all instructors will choose to use Pangram.

Evidence 1
“AI” refers to artificial intelligence technology, including generative and agentic tools. A generative tool, or a feature of a tool, drafts new text, images, figures, code, audio, or video, or makes substantive edits to them. An agentic tool takes actions or completes multi-step tasks on your behalf, including without a prompt for each step. Familiar examples include Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, and Gemini, but the term also covers open-source models, features embedded in other software, and emerging forms such as multi-agent systems. Use is defined by function, not by product name or ownership entity, and the governing question is what a feature does at the moment you use
it. As it is used in this Section, “AI” does not include tools that merely assist with error correction and search and retrieval of source information. Tools that identify errors or suggest corrections to grammar, spelling, or punctuation do not count as AI for purposes of this policy, even if they incorporate AI internally. A tool that rewrites entire sentences or passages, however, is generative. Tools that find, rank, or extract information from sources, including library databases and literature search, do not count as AI for purposes of this policy. A generated summary or synthesis of retrieved sources does count as AI, however, even when it appears inside a search tool.

Representation unspecified in this historical record; do not assume an original-file hash.
Review layers: claim review applies to the claims only. Analysis is a separate machine-generated summary awaiting review. Coverage scores do not establish complete policy knowledge.
Published V6 presentation; JSON and MCP retain the existing public record. Supplementary quotations and scope notes remain pending review. Local candidate corrections, tools and student summaries are not approved for publication. Institution-wide audit remains PARTIAL.
The intranet unauthorized-tools list, some underlying confidentiality/procurement policies and full institutional account eligibility remain inaccessible or unverified.
Workspace Studio’s opt-out training warning and the central no-training rule are both preserved; their specific institutional reconciliation is unverified.
Tools table Reviewed by Date labels are University table metadata, not this audit date, live vendor prices or guaranteed student entitlements.
The Departmental AI Policy is identified as History by body, navigation and footer, not a blanket Social Sciences rule.
Not all departments, syllabi, grants and thesis rules have been exhaustively audited; the reported Social Sciences Core analog policy was not independently obtained.
College, Harris and other academic units have different procedures. General sanctions are not AI-specific automatic penalties.
Original source hashes bind normalized extracted text. Direct CCRF retrieval returned 403; a separately saved rendered reader response supplied the policy text.
AI use depends on the instructor and academic unit. Law’s default prohibits AI-composed submitted writing even with citation; BSD requires prior approval for graded work; Harris permits assistance only under its listed conditions.
Attribute AI assistance as required by student guidance and service/unit rules. PhoenixAI requires citation; Harris requires the specific tool citation and recommends saved outputs. Citation does not make prohibited Law work acceptable.
Confidential data requires prior review. Follow each tool’s data tier and narrower restrictions. Workspace Studio’s training opt-out warning and the general no-training rule both remain relevant; their reconciliation requires University clarification.
The official table lists tools with data, purpose and procurement conditions. Student licence eligibility and vendor prices are not established by a table label; check the particular service and assessment rules.
There is no captured uniform exam permission. Law prohibits GenAI during exams by default unless the instructor specifies otherwise; BSD students should not rely on AI for exams without advance approval. Follow the exact unit and exam rules.
View evidence →What rules apply to research and publication?
Research data approval must cover the use. BSD scholarly work cannot name AI as an author; thesis/project use is subject to mentor or program discretion, scoped prior authorization and disclosure. Human research contributions remain the student’s own.
Instructor rules determine permitted use. College may use imperfect Pangram results as supporting information in a human-led process. College and Harris procedures differ; no automatic AI penalty is established.
Student guidance directs students to instructor policies; Law deviations require a written syllabus. History’s default prohibits classroom GenAI absent a statement, and History faculty refrain from AI grading. BSD sample syllabus statements are examples, not universal policy.
View evidence →What security and procurement requirements apply?
Tools handling confidential data require review even when free. Paid tools use Procurement; free research/staff use has specified review conditions. A Risk Acceptance Letter may document agreed risks, not waive compliance prohibitions.
