Integrity First: Using AI Ethically in College

Integrity First: Using AI Ethically in College is a student‑centered, judgment‑free workshop designed to help you answer those questions with confidence. This session is not about banning AI or catching students doing something wrong. Instead, it focuses on helping you understand how to use AI intentionally, ethically, and responsibly in ways that support your learning rather than replace it. At the center of the workshop is one guiding question that cuts through confusion across courses and assignments: Who is doing the thinking—you or the AI? In this interactive workshop, you will: Learn what ethical AI use actually means in a college context Explore common gray areas students face when using AI for coursework Practice evaluating real‑world scenarios involving AI and academic work Learn how transparency and communication with instructors protect you Gain a practical decision‑making tool you can use across classes Rather than focusing on rules alone, this workshop emphasizes how to think through AI decisions. You will also receive an Ethical AI Decision Checklist you can use anytime you are unsure about using AI. This checklist gives you a simple, repeatable way to pause, reflect, and make informed choices before submitting your work. It is designed to help you protect both your academic integrity and your confidence in your own abilities. This workshop is especially valuable if you: Feel unsure about when AI use is “too much”? Want to use AI to study or brainstorm without cutting corners? Are you concerned about plagiarism, citation, or disclosure expectations? Want to graduate with skills you genuinely own? Above all, Integrity First is designed to leave you feeling confident, not anxious. Ethical use of AI is not about perfection. It is about being intentional, honest, and thoughtful about your learning. AI is a tool. Your thinking is the goal. Join us to learn how to keep it that way. #aiforstudents #aiethics #collegesuccess #studytips #notebooklm #aiforstudents #studentsuccess #libraryworkshop #studysmarternotharder #organization #academicskills #saintleouniversity #ethicalai #integritymatters #academicintegrity
