Campuses are adopting generative AI at scale and students are pushing institutions to formalize training. Coursera’s report finds near-universal use of AI by students and faculty, with 90% of students saying generative AI instruction should be included in degree programs. The study also flags academic-integrity gaps: only 26% of educators report formal AI policies in place. Dartmouth is among institutions moving fastest. The college appointed a faculty special advisor to the provost on AI and published a multiyear implementation plan that pairs a vendor partnership with classroom guidance and faculty development. Dartmouth’s approach — pairing policy, vendor contracts and pedagogy — is being watched as a playbook by peer schools. For enrollment, hiring and curriculum leaders, the immediate decision points are operational: create disclosure rules for student use, specify faculty assessment practices, and scale professional development. Technology procurement teams will need to pair vendor deals with academic governance to reduce risk while expanding classroom uses.
