As many of you are aware, the widespread use of generative Artificial Intelligence tools such as ChatGPT has exploded over the past year. These technologies are already rapidly changing the landscape of higher education. As an institution, we have an opportunity to understand and adapt to these changes.

At UAF, we are committed to high standards of academic integrity and excellence in teaching, research, and service. We are also committed to preparing our students to enter an ever-changing world. As an institution, we are open to the use of AI outside of specific cases where academic or research needs exclude its use. Over the next year, I encourage our university community to thoughtfully explore the resources made available by this emerging technology, such as thisprepared by UAF Center for Teaching and Learning.

In the coming months, I will host a Chancellor’s Forum to discuss opportunities and concerns regarding AI in higher education. I look forward to learning together how we can best utilize this technology in pursuit of our mission to provide excellence through transformative experiences.

Thank you,

Dan White, chancellor
