I have a student who possibly cheated on an exam or an assignment. How should I address this situation?
Begin by reviewing the Student Academic Integrity Policy. This policy defines academic integrity and provides guidelines for evaluating this type of concern.
What, if any, release form(s) might I need for an event or activity? For example, I teach an outdoor recreation class that requires a hike up South Mountain. Should students sign any type of release before participating in the hike?
Yes. If students are required to participate in field trips, events, or other activities, off campus they should sign a Release, Indemnity and Assumption of Risk form.
