Undergraduate Academic Integrity Reporting Responsibilities

Reporting Responsibilities

5.1. All instances of academic integrity violations must be reported to an Academic Integrity Officer designated by the Dean of the Faculty. The report must be in digital form and include the name of course, the name of the student, the nature of the violation, the date the violation was committed, and supporting documentation that shows evidence of the violation. If any documentation is in paper format, they must be converted to digital format so it can be part of an electronic database.

5.2. The instructor of the course where the academic integrity violation occurred has primary responsibility for reporting the violation to the Academic Integrity Officer.

5.3. The Academic Integrity Officer shall have the following responsibilities:

5.3.1. Maintaining a central database of all reported violations of academic integrity.

5.3.2. Maintaining, storing, and protecting all documentation of each violation in both paper and digital form.

5.3.3. Reporting the academic integrity violation by the student to the student’s academic advisor.

5.3.4. Reporting multiple instances of academic integrity violations by the same student to the Dean of the Faculty.

5.3.5. Participating in meetings of the Academic Integrity Committee.

5.4. If more than one instance of academic integrity violations by the same student is identified in the database, the Academic Integrity Officer shall report these instances to the Dean of Faculty. The Dean of Faculty will determine if the student receives an XF grade in the course(s) where the second and/or subsequent violation took place.

5.5. If the Dean of the Faculty determines that an XF grade is to be assigned, the Dean will notify the instructor(s) of the relevant courses, the program director(s) and school director(s) in the jurisdiction of the relevant courses of the decision. The instructor(s) will then send a letter to the student notifying him/her/them of the XF grade.
