The maximum penalty for any form of academic dishonesty is dismissal from the College. The procedures for judicial review are listed under the section of CCSJ handbook that addresses student grievances. All of these guidelines are available in the Calumet College of St. Joseph library or bookstore. These texts outline how to cite references from a variety of sources, including electronic media. Written request for withdrawal must be received by the Registrar by the last day of classes prior to the final examination dates specified in the catalogue.
Students are to make note of the refund schedule when withdrawing from courses.
The request is forwarded to the faculty member, who makes the final determination to accept or deny the request. Students are expected to attend every class, as a large portion of the class and grade depend upon in-class discussion. Students will also be expected to give one oral report and to take, and pass, a mid-term and a final. Students who do very poorly on the mid-term are afforded an opportunity to retake that exam on that material. If students do very poorly on just one of those, that will be counted less in their final grade.
