Please indicate YES or NO by clicking the appropriate answer.  I have read and agree to abide by the Student Honor Code which states:   ACADEMIC INTEGRITY Mississippi State has adopted the following Honor Code.  You are expected to abide by this code in all classes.   Student Honor Code  Mississippi State has an approved Honor Code that applies to all students. The code is as follows: “As a Mississippi State University student, I will conduct myself with honor and integrity at all times. I will not lie, cheat, or steal, nor will I accept the actions of those who do.”  Upon accepting admission to Mississippi State University, a student immediately assumes a commitment to uphold the Honor Code, to accept responsibility for learning, and to follow the philosophy and rules of the Honor Code. These rules make clear that a student must not receive unauthorized assistance with their work. This principle includes the content created by generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools without authorization from the instructor. Students will be required to state their commitment to the honor code on examinations, research papers, and other academic work. Ignorance of the rules does not exclude any member of the MSU community from the requirements or the processes of the Honor Code.

Please indicate YES or NO by clicking the appropriate answer.  I have read and agree to abide by the course policy on Artificial Intelligence (AI) listed in our course syllabus which states: Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy:   AI tools are increasingly part of learning and professional practice, and you may use them to support your work (e.g., brainstorming ideas, organizing content, studying, or clarifying difficult concepts). However, AI should support – not replace – your own thinking, analysis, and writing. All work you submit must reflect your own understanding and voice. Overreliance on AI or submitting AI-generated work as your own may be considered a violation of academic integrity and the MSU Honor Code.  If you use AI tools for any assignment, you must clearly disclose:  The tool you used (e.g., ChatGPT, CoPilot, Grammarly, etc.)  How you used it (e.g., brainstorming, editing, outlining)  You are fully responsible for the accuracy, quality, and integrity of anything you submit.  AI Use Disclosure (include with assignment if applicable): I used [tool name] to assist with [brief description of use]. All final responses reflect my own understanding and have been reviewed for accuracy.
