What is the academic integrity review process?

1. The instructor听reports听an academic integrity concern to the Office of Academic Integrity听听
2. OAI听examines the materials and, if there鈥檚 evidence of a suspected violation, the student receives a letter from our office, by email, that reports the concern.听
3. The student is invited to talk with Academic Integrity Coordinator. During the meeting, the goal is for the student to offer their account, to be heard, and to understand the AIC听process.听
4. Students have 5 business days to decide whether they would like this case to go to panel or if it will go to our Assistant Director (Jacqueline Raynolds) for review.听听
5. If they choose to go to panel, the Office convenes a group of two professors and one student to examine the materials and make a recommendation. The student may appear before the panel to offer information and comments.听听
6. If they choose to go directly to the Assistant Director, (with the option to meet with her in the process) the Assistant Director will examine the materials and provide a recommendation.听
7. The Assistant Dean receives a recommendation either from a panel or from the Assistant Director, reviews the cases, and makes a final decision. The student will receive a resolution letter reporting the outcome听听
8. If the sanction requires a change to the student鈥檚 transcript, the student may appeal to the Provost鈥檚 office within ten business days.
