Membership of the Academic Integrity Council (AIC)
The AIC is led by a Chair who is:
- a non-voting member who presides over all hearings of the AIC
- to serve as a neutral resource to both students and faculty.
- to be a tenured faculty member, appointed by the Chief Academic Officer to serve a two-year term, which may be renewed.
The other members of the AIC form a pool of faculty members from which the AIC Chair draws to form Hearing Panels.
- At least three faculty members from each college are to be appointed to the AIC, with at least one faculty member coming from each academic school or division. These faculty members are to be tenured, unless the particular division or school they represent has less than two tenured faculty. In such cases, non-tenured faculty may be appointed to the AIC. These faculty members are to be appointed to the AIC by the deans of each college, in consultation with division chairs, to serve two-year terms, which may be renewed. Additional tenured faculty members may be appointed to the AIC as needed, from any academic division or school, at the discretion of the deans. The terms of these faculty members are to be staggered, to ensure continuity.
- Three undergraduate students, to be selected from three different academic units, are to be appointed by the Chief Student Life Officer each year to serve one-year terms on the AIC. Terms of service are renewable.
