Accused of GenAI use
English major. This is a burner account. I received an extension for a certain term paper that I was meant to write for an English class; this paper being unique in that it was attached to a "creative project" where you could make an art piece if you wanted in lieu of a traditional research paper. I had chosen this and done my paper, which the professor took issue with because I had been analysing the art piece and not the poems. I redid the paper analysing the poems and now I find out that she's submitted it to the committee for a hearing. The reasoning behind it is that my introductory paragraph was similar to another student who she already suspects of AI use. And then she ran the poems through ChatGPT and yielded results that had "considerable similarities" to my paper. This is infuriating because she didn't even specify what those similarities were; nor who the other student was; nor did she make an informal consultation; NOR did she even tell me - I only found out because I sent a followup email (the paper was due on the 6th). I already have a deferred exam to write and this is not what I needed, and she's not responding to any of my followup emails.
TL;DR: falesly accused of GenAI use. Have to do a misconduct hearing.
