Harpur College Academic Honesty Code
Integrity and trust are fundamental to Harpur College and Binghamton University’s academic mission, as described in the University’s Academic Honesty Code in the Academic Guide.
For minor violations involving a student with no prior offenses, instructors may use the Admission of Dishonesty Form.
- By signing the form, the student accepts responsibility and the assigned course penalty. A temporary note is entered in a confidential database and is removed at graduation if no additional violations occur.
Serious violations, or cases involving students with prior offenses, are referred to the formal hearing process (see below). These cases are resolved through an administrative or board hearing, and any penalties are recommended by the reviewing body and adjudicated by the Associate Dean.
