Adelphi University.

Adelphi's published sources on AI detection and academic integrity, quoted in brief and linked below. These are potentially relevant official sources, not a determination of which one governs any case — the Academic Integrity policy and the Code of Conduct are the governing texts, the provost committee's guidance is faculty-facing, and course syllabi may add rules. Confirm applicability with the institution. Any dates or deadlines are quoted from the sources, not a deadline calculation performed for you.

01Detection status

AI detection is in use at Adelphi

Turnitin runs through Moodle (FCPE instructional-tools page, modified May 7, 2026; retrieved Aug 21, 2026). The most detailed source is the Provost's Committee on Academic Integrity's "Guidance for faculty in reporting suspected GenAI misuse" (drafted January 2025; presented to the Faculty Senate Spring 2025; retrieved Aug 21, 2026). Brief excerpts:

"Faculty should use only Turnitin's GenAI detector […] A Turnitin AI report should be attached to every violation report of suspected GenAI misuse." "Both a faculty member's 'gut' and a Turnitin AI score should be considered grounds for further investigation rather than sufficient evidence in themselves." "…text paraphrasers like Grammarly will, if used extensively (to alter a large amount of text) or intensively (to substantially rewrite portions of text), register as GenAI content in Turnitin's detector."

The same guidance instructs faculty that a report should also describe corroborating features of the submission — it lists hallucinated or flawed citations, similarity to attached GenAI output, terminology beyond what the course covered, and sophistication beyond the student's demonstrated writing of known originality. The university's Academic Integrity policy separately treats AI-generated content submitted without attribution or authorization as a form of plagiarism.

What Adelphi's own documents say about how cases proceed

The provost committee's guidance states the evidentiary standard and the student's procedural position directly (same PDF, retrieved Aug 21, 2026):

"Adelphi (like many universities) uses the 'preponderance of the evidence' standard to sustain a violation report, not the higher standards used in certain legal settings." "…students have due process rights when facing an institutional sanction, and among those rights is a fair hearing and a chance to appeal the faculty member's decision." "When submitted, a violation report should be sufficient to persuade a neutral third party that it is more likely than not that the behavior described in the report constitutes a violation of our academic integrity policy."

Per Adelphi's policy and conduct pages (located and summarized Aug 21, 2026; read the originals linked below): suspected violations are reported through the Maxient system, preferably within two business days of discovery, and routed to the university's Academic Integrity Officer with a copy to Student Conduct and Community Standards; an academic integrity advocate is available to the student through investigation, resolution, and appeal; referred cases resolve through a disciplinary conference or a formal hearing before a university hearing board; and the appeal process, including its grounds, is set out in Section 27 of the Code of Conduct. What any of this means for a particular case is for the institution and its process to determine.

Revision history of this page

2026-08-21 — Page created. Captured first-party this date: the provost committee's GenAI reporting guidance PDF (all quotations above) and the FCPE instructional-tools page. The Academic Integrity policy, Code of Conduct, and conduct-process pages were located and summarized but not captured as full text; the process description in section 02 is paraphrase pending verification, and those pages need a manual read and archive capture before this page is promoted. Adelphi is a private institution: this page quotes brief excerpts and links originals; it republishes nothing in full. Reviewer: [named human reviewer before publication]. Internet Archive captures: to be added.
