If this matter is related to non-academic or behavioral student conduct, please use our Student Conduct Incident Report Form.

When submitting complaints alleging violations of Academic Integrity, which is one of the Standards of Conduct in the Student Disciplinary Policy, the referral should include:

• A copy of the course syllabus with any statements regarding academic integrity highlighted.

• A copy of any internal department policies regarding academic misconduct.

• A description of the information giving rise to the allegations, including copies of written assignment instructions (if not contained in the syllabus) or a summary of any oral instructions the faculty/Teaching Assistant (TA) provided.

• Copies of any relevant communications between the faculty and the student, such as emails, regarding the incident(s).

• In cases of where allegations of cheating are made, faculty should provide copies of the assignments/exams in which the faculty member suspects the student has cheated. The student's assignment/exam should have alleged or in question passages highlighted. (Please note that the student may have full access to these assignments/exams and any answer keys provided.).

• In cases of plagiarism, faculty should provide a copy of the student's paper and the source text(s) from which the faculty member suspects the student has plagiarized. The student's paper should have alleged or in question passages highlighted and numbered to correspond to highlighted and numbered passages in the source text(s). These copies will help identify passages and sources of concern.

• In cases of plagiarism or fabrication of information, faculty should consider submitting an optional timeline. Important events to include would be the date the student received the full details of the assignment, any intermittent deadlines (i.e., drafts, bibliographies, etc.), the assignment submission, any communication regarding the assignment, the date the alleged plagiarism or fabrication was realized, and any subsequent communication with the student.

• The intended grade sanction in the course if the student is found responsible and the student's current average in the course (prior to referral).

• A short statement regarding your perception of the impact of the student’s academic integrity misconduct on their academic record, their class, and the larger community within the department.
