The Office of Student Judicial Affairs provides administrative support for faculty and students bringing forth charges of academic dishonesty. Formal rules of evidence are not applicable. The AIB Chairperson must give attention to the rules of confidentiality and privilege. Advisors may speak to the student or faculty member, but may not speak for the student or faculty member. The accused student is permitted to ask questions of any of the complainant's witnesses.
Hearings are closed to the public.
Witnesses are excluded from the hearing during the testimony of other witnesses. All witnesses and members of the public are excluded from AIB deliberations. Faculty AIB members are nominated by the Committee on Committees of the Faculty Senate from a list of volunteers willing to serve, and approved by a vote of the Faculty Senate. Faculty members serve two-year staggered terms and may be nominated for consecutive terms. Student AIB members are nominated by the Student Government Association President and selected by a Student Judicial Board interview panel.
