Faculty Resources and Support

Sewanee students commit themselves to living with honor, which the Honor Code recognizes as “an ideal and an obligation . . . [that] exists in the human spirit and it lives in the relations between human beings.” As a liberal arts institution, one of our main objectives is to instill in our students the abilities to problem solve and to think critically while upholding high standards of honor, trust, and ethical responsibility. The use of AI should never circumvent or undermine the conditions that make for an excellent liberal arts education: an education that engages both with the enduring questions of humanity and the needs of our current society through honor, stewardship, and citizenship.

Instructors who encounter illicit use of AI in their course should share that information with the Fellows for AI Readiness through this form. That form gathers information but does NOT inform the Honor Council. Instructors are also asked to inform the Council of a suspected case of AI misuse through this form; for those cases that escalate to involvement of the Council, there must be a clear record of documentation.

The College Faculty has responsibility for establishing, maintaining, and modifying programs and structures that advance the academic curriculum.

The College is constantly seeking to improve. Our commitment to regular, honest, and reflective assessment of our academic programs demonstrates our commitment to improving the quality of the Sewanee experience.
