Academic Dishonesty Incident Report Form

This process provides an opportunity to hold students accountable for academic dishonesty incidents. In addition, faculty are often not aware that some students may have multiple academic dishonesty incidents that may occur with several departments. By having a central location for all academic dishonesty cases, there is a better understanding of the trends in academic dishonesty and the opportunity for academic affairs and student affairs to address any problem trends in a formal way, e.g., Honor Code, more academic dishonesty education/information.
