As you prepare to begin the fall semester, we want to provide some important academic information and reminders essential to your success.

1. Academic Integrity

The importance of academic integrity in everything we do at the University cannot be overstated. This spring, CUNY passed a revised Academic Integrity Policy that addresses appropriate use of existing and emerging generative Artificial Intelligence tools, like ChatGPT and Copilot, that are in widespread use in our community. Our policy, which you can find here, outlines expectations for honest and ethical behavior in your academic work and recognizes that there are both legitimate and illegitimate uses of this technology. If you encounter any issues or uncertainties about authorized use, please discuss them with your professors and consult your syllabi for guidance. Remember, upholding academic integrity not only reflects your personal values, but also ensures a fair and equitable learning environment for all students.

2. Civil Discourse in Our Classrooms and on Campus

It is no secret that we return to campus at a time when the world is grappling with crises and our country with the next presidential election. It is critical to our values as a community and our educational mission that we maintain civil discourse and respect for all individuals in and outside of our classrooms. Every student is entitled to an education free from harassment, and CUNY is committed to ensuring that the university maintains a safe and respectful environment for all. By committing to these principles, we can foster a positive and inclusive atmosphere that encourages both the free exchange of ideas and an environment where all students can thrive.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email student.affairs@kbcc.cuny.edu or stop in to see us in Room A-216.

Thank you for making KCC a place of respect, excellence, and belonging.

Wishing you a successful and fulfilling semester.
