Why 2/5: This is a study resolution, meaning its direct impact is not immediate but lays groundwork for future policy and resource development.
This bill directs the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission (JLARC) to study artificial intelligence use policies at Virginia's colleges and universities. The study will evaluate current policies, develop a model policy for AI use in higher education, and recommend AI tools and curricula for a statewide resource clearinghouse for educators and students.
