The University expects all students to represent themselves in a honest fashion, that includes presentation of original ideas and giving credit for the ideas of others.
Faculty determine the occurrence of academic dishonesty.
Assign a failing grade to the paper, examination, report, etc., on which the student cheated. Assign a failing grade for the course in which the student cheated. If the offense is reported, the student must simultaneously be notified. If the instructor feels the seriousness of the offense warrants a more severe penalty, or believes it is appropriate to do so for any other reason, the incident may be reported to the Student Conduct Committee through the Vice President of Student Affairs. The instructor's report should be in writing and be accompanied by evidence.
