Hello,

Thank you for your commitment to maintaining the highest academic integrity standards in your classrooms and labs. Both your professional reputation and Carroll's reputation rely on this.

Please review the following steps and resources for reporting academic integrity violations:

Report the Violation: Complete the Incident Report on Canvas.
Check for Priors: After reporting, you will be informed via email if the student has any prior violations.
Schedule a Meeting: Email the student to schedule a conference (in person or on Microsoft TEAMS) to discuss the alleged violation. Inform the student that withdrawing from the class will not absolve them of responsibility.
Conduct the Meeting: Share your concerns and gather the student’s input. Make sure they understand the process and the implications of the alleged violation. Be clear about the specifics and answer any questions they may have.
Document the Meeting: Take notes during the meeting to accurately summarize the discussion in the Conference Summary Form.
Explain Disciplinary Records: Inform the student about the maintenance and voiding of disciplinary files as per college regulations. The file of a student found responsible of any charge(s) will be retained as an active disciplinary record for five (5) years from the date of the letter providing notice of final disciplinary action (Refer to the Disciplinary Files and Records section under Section Six: Code of Integrity for Academic and Behavioral Standards
Outline the Outcome: Explain the educative action and any sanctions (e.g., grade reduction). Ask if the student has any questions before proceeding.
Obtain Student Response: The student should agree or disagree with the outcome while in the meeting. Please ensure that the student checks their email and selects agree or disagree before concluding the meeting.

If the issue is not resolved in the initial meeting, follow the process outlined on the Student Care and Integrity page..

Please let me know if you have any questions. I am here to help!
