Policy Provisions
1. Student Discipline

Infractions of University regulations, any behavioral disruptions, and any academic disciplinary problems with students should be reported to the Dean of Students, the Executive Director of Facilities and Safety, or the Executive Vice President. A compilation of student regulations is available in the Office of Student Services.

If plagiarism or cheating on tests or examinations is suspected, the faculty member should contact the student or students involved privately as soon as possible after the discovery of plagiarism or cheating. A full written report must be given to the School Dean immediately with a copy of the report going to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Those students who admit to cheating or plagiarism normally will receive a failing grade either in the course or on the particular test or assignment, at the faculty member’s discretion. The Disciplinary Committee will hear those who assert their innocence.
