What the school says
The published policy
Wisconsin Law School Rule 3.20, 'Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence' (adopted May 3, 2024, modified October 3, 2025), requires every faculty member to set and publish a generative-AI policy on their syllabus for their own course. If a faculty member sets no policy, the default Law School rule is that student use of generative AI in academic work, including exams, is prohibited. Faculty who permit AI use are encouraged to set clear task-by-task guidelines and address privacy and bias risks.
From the school’s own document: “the default Law School policy will be that student use of generative AI”
AI disclosure on submitted work: Prohibited by default under the documents reviewed.

This page states only what University of Wisconsin Law School’s own published documents said when checked in Sept '26; schools revise these documents, sometimes at the same URL, so confirm the current version before relying on it. This is informational research, not legal or academic advice; the school’s current honor code and your professors’ instructions control.
