Student Conduct and Academic Honesty
A student’s first responsibility is academic honesty. The College assumes that students will not resort to plagiarism, theft and mutilation of library books and periodicals, or any other form of academic dishonesty. Any student found guilty of academic dishonesty will be subject to appropriate disciplinary action. Additional information is found in the Graduate Student Handbook, which is available at the www.uniongraduatecollege.edu.
All members of Union Graduate College community are bound together by respect for the individual and the collective rights of others. Any student who violates the safety and security of Union Graduate College community is subject to disciplinary action by the College as outlined in the Student Disciplinary Code (See the Graduate Student Handbook). Any member of Union Graduate College community or a guest/visitor may file an incident report against a student with any member of the Academic Committee.
Union Graduate College has a central concern for establishing and maintaining a community in which work and learning proceed in a humane and caring atmosphere for all its members. Sexual harassment is a violation of law and will not be tolerated in any form at Union Graduate College.
Sexual harassment, according to the definition developed by National Organization of Women, is any repeated or unwanted verbal or physical sexual advance, sexually explicit derogatory statements, or sexually discriminatory remarks made by someone in the classroom or workplace which is offensive or which causes the recipient discomfort or humiliation, or which interferes with the recipient’s education or job performance.
Should students feel they have been the victims of any form of the behavior noted above, they may initiate informal discussion or more formal procedures through the Affirmative Action Advisor. The policy in the Graduate Student Handbook regarding sexual harassment outlines appropriate actions students may take. It is distributed to all new students.
Union Graduate College’s policy of nondiscrimination on the basis of age, race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or national origin extends to all areas of College operations including, but not limited to, admissions, student aid, athletics, employment and educational programs.
