Students Rights and Responsibilities
When a student is charged with plagiarism or cheating related to a class, and the instructor has reasonable proof or documentation or the student admits the violation, the instructor may select one or more of the following options:
- Issue an oral or written notification and warn the student that further acts of this sort will result in additional disciplinary action.
- Issue a failing grade (“F”) or “0” for the assignment in question.
- Refer the student to the CSSO for disciplinary action.
