Solano Community College addresses AI primarily through its Distance Education Handbook, adopted by the Academic Senate in March 2024 and updated May 2025, which treats unauthorized AI-generated work as academic dishonesty and provides faculty with three-option syllabus language (no AI, limited AI, or AI with disclosure). The college offers guidance on AI tool limitations and lists AI-powered resources such as Khanmigo and ALEKS on its Canvas Faculty Resources page, while its Data Science A.S. degree includes machine-learning career pathways.
