Policy Statement

When Academic Integrity is brought into question it must be referred to the Academic Integrity Committee.

Policy Procedures

The committee will review the allegation by interviewing both faculty members and students involved. If the committee determines the allegation to be a case of misconduct one or more of the following penalties could be instituted:

  • A written warning of reprimand;
  • Resubmission of assignment with or without a grade reduction;
  • A zero(0) will be given for the assignment/test/paper/etc. in which the offense occurs;
  • The student(s) will receive a failing grade in the course
  • The student(s) will be recommended to the Student Guidance Committee for expulsion from the University.

Academic Misconduct offenses are permanently recorded and filed in the Academic Office but only accessible by the Academic Integrity Committee and authorized members of the Student Services Department.


Failure to follow this policy may lead to disciplinary action.
