Sanctions for Academic Dishonesty

13.SANCTIONS FOR ACADEMIC DISHONESTY (see the Code of Student Conduct)

The student is always placed on academic integrity probation as described in (13.1) below, and given one of the following sanctions or a combination of sanctions as listed in (13.2- 13.7) below.

13.1 The student will be placed on academic integrity probation for the remainder of the student's academic career. Note that suspension will be instituted if the academic dishonesty is committed while the student is already on academic integrity probation.

13.2 No credit on the assignment, paper, program, test or exam on which the violation occurred, or 13.3 No credit for the course.

13.4 In addition to any of the other sanctions listed or in lieu of an additional semester of suspension an academic community service assignment may be given. 13.5 Participation in the Academic Integrity Seminar Series.

13.6 The student will be suspended if the academic dishonesty is committed while he or she is already on academic integrity probation or when the acts committed involved advance planning, falsification of papers, forms, or documents, collaboration with others, or some actual or potential harm to other students. For example, theft of another student's returned examination will usually merit suspension, even for a first offense. In cases where the student will complete graduation requirements during the current semester, suspension is to take effect immediately. In cases where a student will complete graduation requirements in either summer session I or II, the suspension period will be applied to summer session. Suspension will be noted on the transcript.

13.7 The student will be expelled if he or she is a repeat offender or in those cases where acts committed are considered to be substantial violations of academic integrity or present substantial harm to other students.
