How do I file a report with OSRR?

If you observe a student engaging in a behavior that is a possible violation of the Student Code of Conduct, please use our online incident report form. The office will then determine if the information warrants student conduct charges. We also work with faculty members who have questions about responding to potential violations of the Academic Integrity Policy. The Academic Integrity Resources page provides links to the Center for Academic Integrity and information on how to prevent academic dishonesty.

How do I become involved with Student Conduct?

You can become involved in the conduct process by serving as the staff/faculty hearing administrator on a Formal Hearing Panel. The staff/faculty member works with other members toward resolution of alleged violations of the Code; if applicable, the hearing administrator will assist in determining sanctions that are educational and appropriate to the incident. Training is generally held once or twice a year.
