Educational Instruction And Assistance:

The purpose of special educational instruction and assistance is to help ensure that students avoid committing acts of academic misconduct again.
A “training hold” will be placed on the student’s account to prevent the student from registering for classes, requesting transcripts, and / or graduating, until the instructor’s dean or designee receives notification from the appropriate units (i.e., the Writing Center and the Academic Support Center) that this educational training has been completed.
The student is still to be allowed to withdraw from the course in which academic misconduct occurred, prior to completing this educational training, provided that the course-level penalty determined by the instructor is not failure for the entire course and that the university deadline for withdrawing has not passed. The mandatory educational instruction is to include 1) individualized educational counseling with (non-student) staff at the Academic Support Center and 2) instruction from the Writing Center about plagiarism. This instruction is to include both components, no matter what the exact nature of the act of misconduct was.
This mandatory educational instruction is to consist of standardized modules approved by the Academic Standards Committee.
