Academic Misconduct

The Academic Misconduct form is designed for individuals to share information about a possible violation of the ʯÁñÖ±²¥ Codes of Conduct by a student.

Directions: For the incident description, please include the facts of the case, but also how the student responded when you confronted him/her (if applicable). For example, note if the student was notably apologetic, cooperative, combative, etc. Also list any mitigating or exacerbating factors relevant to contextualizing the offense. For example, if the student reveals mental health or disability issues that contributed to the behavior, say so. That allows campus resources to be marshalled on the student's behalf and can change how the record of misconduct is viewed later. If you have questions about what information to include, please call SCAI at 470-578-3403.

Students’ conduct records are protected by this law, and as such students can submit the FERPA Waiver to provide written consent for SCAI to share information with designated individuals.
