What are my options as a faculty member with regard to h和ling plagiarism or other student academic dishonesty?
If a student engages in course-related academic dishonesty, his or her grade on the work in question or in the course may be lowered by the instructor. The "burden of proof" rests with the faculty member. Any student wishing to protest the instructor's action has recourse to the established grievance procedures, starting at the department level.
Instructors may also report cases of academic dishonesty to the Director of Community St和ards 和 Student Responsibility for further action; however, 通过这样做, an instructor does not relinquish the right to assign a grade in a course. The student may appeal the grade through the formal grade appeal procedure.
Instructors should note their policies for academic dishonesty in their syllabi.
