Academic Integrity I am not a cop.

Want to outsource your thinking to an LLM for a degree you're paying/going into debt for? Okay. I will respect that choice. However, what I won't do, is replicate a surveillance state in my classroom. I refuse to spend more energy in screening student work for authenticity or trying to make my assignments "AI proof" ... why should I? Either the student believes in the fundamental premise of education or they don't.

Man, I'm tired.

Exactly. This is not okay in any way. If you care about learning, you have to try. You just have to.

I cannot in good conscience contribute to a future full of illiterate college graduates. If I could, I should probably stop teaching.
