Faculty: The Instructor reviews the information and determines whether there is sufficient reason to proceed with the charge of academic dishonesty.
Faculty: The Instructor communicates their concerns with the student, citing evidence that the student has violated the course specific integrity policy as articulated in the syllabus.
Faculty: If appropriate, the Instructor enacts sanctions as defined in the syllabus. Penalties imposed by the instructor are limited to those actions whose ramifications fall within the confines of the class such as a zero on the relevant assignment.
Students must be informed in writing of their right to appeal the instructor's decision to the division Dean. The Instructor notifies their Dean and submits an online form notifying the Code of Conduct Investigation Team.
Dean: If the student admits guilt but opposes the instructor’s sanctions or denies the allegations, the case is handled by the Dean as an Academic Complaint according to the process outlined by the Faculty Master Collective Bargaining Agreement.
Dean: The Dean and Faculty notify the Code of Conduct Investigation Team if the violation is egregious or reflects a broader attempt to facilitate dishonesty.
Code of Conduct Investigation Team: If the incident is not the student’s first academic dishonesty case or it reflects a broader attempt to facilitate dishonesty, a Code of Conduct Investigation is enacted to determine the appropriate sanctions.
