Academic Integrity
The very nature of higher education requires that students adhere to
accepted standards of academic integrity. Therefore, Oakton Community College
has adopted a Code of Academic Conduct and a Statement of Student Academic
Integrity. These may be found in the Student handbook. You may also find
a summary of the Code of Academic Conduct on the College Catalog. Among
the violations of academic integrity listed and defined are: Cheating,
plagiarism, falsification and fabrication of records and official documents,
personal misrepresentation and proxy, and bribes, favors, and threats.
It is the student's responsibility to be aware of behaviors that constitute academic dishonesty.
Pursuant to the due process guarantees contained in the Policy and Procedures on Student Academic Integrity, the minimum punishment for the first offense for a student found in violation of the standards of academic integrity is failure in the assignment. In addition, a disciplinary record will be established and kept on file in the office of the Vice-President for Student Affairs for a period of 3 years.
