Academic Misconduct

Academic Misconduct is defined in the Rose State College Student Handbook as “Cheating, plagiarism, unauthorized collaboration, alteration of academic materials, or other acts of academic dishonesty.” (Page 13). Faculty members have the discretion to determine appropriate disciplinary actions, which may include assigning a grade of "F" for the assignment or for the entire course. In all cases, faculty must notify the student in writing of the action taken.

1. Faculty should complete this form, providing a detailed description of the incident. All relevant supporting materials (e.g., copies of the assignment, evidence of misconduct) must be attached and submitted to the Dean.
2. The Dean will email a copy to the Coordinator of Academic Affairs and the Director of Student Accountability.
3. If a second violation form is submitted for the same student, the Director of Student Accountability will determine and implement an appropriate disciplinary action.
