Dear Colleagues:

Last fall, after receiving and discussing requests for central guidance, I appointed a college-level task force to help establish guidelines for Arts and Sciences instructors on the use of AI technology in the classroom.   This AI Task Force worked rapidly and produced an initial report that we?ve posted on the college web site at  https://artsandsciences.fsu.edu/about/coas-ai-taskforce<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fartsandsciences.fsu.edu%2Fabout%2Fcoas-ai-taskforce&data=05%7C02%7Cas-faculty%40lists.fsu.edu%7C8ce691d14c64478b4fc408dd4d0a63f1%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638751429210376425%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=buutKm1EjzZ9HJ2csKYLL2Zm3h88cYiLtW9%2B7k7KWe4%3D&reserved=0> which links off of the About The College page.

I want to thank the members of the Task Force, whose names appear at the link, and in particular the chair, Gary Tyson, for taking on this role.  Because AI technology has quickly become accessible to everyone and is now thoroughly embraced by students, it is in our best interests to decide how we will deal with AI as it intersects with instruction.  Further, in light of continuous change occuring with AI technology, the AI Task Force will remain in place for now and will continue its work.  Among its other charges is to explore and report on the growing impact of AI technology on research.  The web site will serve as a repository for information and further guidance.

Best wishes,
Sam

Dear Academic Deans (please share with your faculty and travel representatives):

Please encourage your tenured and tenure-earning faculty to apply for funding (if they haven't already) from the Provost's Faculty Travel Grant Program.  The deadline for Spring 2025 applications (for travel between January 1 - June 30, 2025) is March 17, 2025, at 5:00 P.M. Faculty are advised to apply even if they are not yet sure of their need for funding.  Applications may be cancelled if funding is not needed, but funds will not be awarded retroactively (i.e., for prior semesters). The application deadline is firm.

Please see the following links for further information:
