Student Code of Conduct

The missions of the University and its constituent Schools can be realized only if students hold themselves and each other to the highest standards of academic conduct. Academic misconduct not only reflects poorly on the student committing the act, it degrades the quality of the educational environment for all and calls the integrity of the University’s educational mission into question. In all cases, the University is committed to respecting students’ constitutional and legal rights and the principles of academic freedom.
