Georgia’s Terry College of Business has put academic honesty and assessment under the microscope after interim Dean Santanu Chatterjee framed AI as a fundamental challenge to grading.

Recruiters and employers visiting campus (including EY) have pressed the point directly, asking what an A represents in the AI era.
