Can an instructor impose penalties for failure to report another students academic dishonesty?
According to section 1.8.1 of the Code of Student Conduct, “No student shall cheat, plagiarize or facilitate academic dishonesty by another student.” Instructors may consider failure to report another student for academic dishonesty to be facilitation of academic dishonesty. The instructor would be free to impose penalties for this violation. Once again, students do have the right to a hearing if they disagree with the penalty.
