Multiple Offenses

For multiple offenses of academic dishonesty, the committee shall recommend a minimum penalty of college service. Two instances of serious or egregious academic dishonesty shall result in a minimum of automatic academic dishonesty probation. Academic suspension may also be recommended. A maximum penalty of expulsion from the university may be recommended upon two instances of serious or egregious acts of academic dishonesty. Three determinations of academic dishonesty of any form will result in an automatic expulsion from the university.

In the event of academic dishonesty probation or suspension, the committee may place a statement on the student’s transcript indicating that the suspension was the result of academic dishonesty. If the student commits no other act of academic dishonesty, he/she may petition the university upon graduation to have his/her record expunged. An offense resulting in expulsion cannot be expunged from the student’s record.
