Academic Review Meeting
When a second (or higher) violation is reported to the Office of Community Responsibility (OCR) or there is a request for additional action and the violation is not being appealed, a meeting will be scheduled with the following individuals:
- Office of Community Responsibility academic integrity liaison of the student’s home college or designee;
- Associate dean or designee of the student’s home college;
- Associate dean of the college in which the course is registered (second violation) or designee;
- The student;
- The course instructor(s) or designee(s) for the violations will be invited but are not required to attend the meeting.
- The departmental representative or designee when appropriate.
This group will discuss the reported violations and the factors (including mitigating or aggravating circumstances) that led to these violations. The group will be provided access to all relevant documentation related to the violation(s) under review. After discussing the violations, the student and course instructor(s), if present, will leave the meeting and the college representatives will determine the appropriate outcome(s) for the number of violations that are being reviewed. The typical outcome(s) for a student with two violations of the University Policy on Academic Integrity includes a one or two-semester suspension and restorative outcomes. Additional and/or more severe violations may increase the length of separation, including the possibility of permanent separation (expulsion).
These outcome(s) will be communicated in writing to the student by the Office of Community Responsibility representative and a copy of the final outcome letter will be sent to the following individuals:
- Course instructor(s)
- Head of the student's home department
- Associate dean of the student's home college
- Academic advisor for the student
- Head of department in which the course(s) is housed (if different from the student's department)
- Associate dean of the college in which the course(s) is housed (if different from the student's college)
- Associate deans or designees who participated in the Academic Review Meeting
Students participating in an Academic Review Meeting may have a 糖心Vlog视频 community member (faculty, staff, student) serve as a support person. A support person will not be permitted to participate in the meeting but may advise the student and/or be present during the meeting.
Students who choose to have a non-affiliate as their support person will have their case reviewed by the Academic Responsibility Panel.
In circumstances where expulsion is the outcome from an Academic Review Meeting, the Vice Provost for Education or designee will affirm or modify the outcome and notify the student in writing of the final decision.
