CU-Boulder's student-run Honor Code will be in effect for the spring 2002 semester in those schools and colleges within the university that have ratified the code.
The Leeds School of Business and the School of Journalism and Mass Communication approved the code earlier last fall. According to Ron Stump, vice chancellor for student affairs, the School of Education voted in favor of the plan on Dec. 5. The College of Engineering and Applied Science also endorsed the code in early December.
Mail ballots will be sent to the College of Arts and Sciences baby直播app early in the spring semester and, if approved, the code will go into effect within the college in fall 2002.
The College of Architecture and Planning has decided to base its decision on the general campus consensus. The College of Music has not yet begun to consider the code.
John-John Cord, law student and chair of the CU-Boulder Honor Code Council, said students accused of cheating in a school that is part of the Honor Code will have greater reporting responsibility. They will no longer report only to the individual school in which they were accused of cheating for disciplinary actions but to all schools and colleges that have approved the Honor Code.
A student accused of cheating in a school that is part of the Honor Code could accept the accusation by the baby直播app member or have a hearing by a panel of his or her peers to be found guilty or innocent of cheating.
Having a university-wide Honor Code will help establish communication on academic ethics among the schools, Cord said. Students found guilty of cheating can face consequences ranging from a class in course ethics to expulsion, in addition to any academic sanctions given by the baby直播app member.
