Artificial Intelligence:
Policies & guidelines

Overview

Morehouse’s AI policies and guidelines prioritize integrity, transparency, and mission-aligned learning. During the 2024–2025 academic year, Academic Affairs established an Academic Policy Working Group to develop generative AI guidance for both student learning and faculty instruction, with representation across the institution (including HR and IT).

Student Guidance

Students are expected to use AI as a learning support—not a replacement for original thinking. Courses may define permitted and prohibited uses, and students should practice transparency by documenting tools used when required. Privacy is central: avoid uploading sensitive personal or institutional information into unapproved platforms. These expectations reflect Morehouse’s commitment to responsible, human-centered learning and academic rigor.

Faculty Guidance

Faculty are encouraged to make AI expectations explicit through clear syllabus language and assessments that emphasize process, critique, authentic work, and learning evidence. Morehouse’s approach centers ethical reasoning, inclusivity, and continuous improvement—using pilots, workshops, and shared governance to refine what responsible AI looks like across disciplines.
