74|Page 3. Student organizations are required to seek immediate medical assistance for their members or guests when any potential health risk is observed, including medical emergencies related to the use of alcohol and/ or drugs. A student organization that seeks immediate assistance from appropriate sources will not be charged with violations of the Kutztown University Student Code of Conduct related to alcohol and/or drugs, if that organization completes any educational programming required by the Dean of Students Office and/or the Office of Student Involvement. However, the organization can and will be held accountable for any other violations of the Student Code of Conduct related to the incident. Student organizations that fail to seek immediate medical assistance for members or guests in need of attention will likely be charged with violations of the Student Code of Conduct and face revocation or suspension of recognition as the outcome of such charges. It is imperative that student organizations seek medical assistance for their members or guests in such an emergency situation. 4. This policy applies only to those students or student organizations that seek emergency medical assistance in connection with an alcohol or drug-related medical emergency and does not apply to individuals experiencing an alcohol or drug-related medical emergency who are found by university officials (i.e., Public Safety & Police Services, faculty, administrative staff, residence hall staff including student Community Assistants and Desk Assistants, etc.). 5. This policy is not intended to shield or protect those students or organizations that repeatedly violate the Student Code of Conduct. In cases where repeated violations of the Kutztown University Student Code of Conduct occur, the university reserves the right to take disciplinary action on a case-by-case basis regardless of the manner in which the incident was reported. 6. The university reserves the right to adjudicate any incident based on its review of the incident in question. The Dean of Students Office also reserves the right to contact any student to discuss an incident whether or not this policy is in effect. Academic Honesty – Undergraduate Students (ACA-027) A. Purpose The purpose of this policy is to define the procedures and penalties for academic dishonesty for undergraduate students. Kutztown University is committed to the personal and intellectual growth of its students. The principal context in which this growth occurs is the university’s courses, and the educational process depends upon an open and honest atmosphere of positive cooperation between faculty and students. In order to maintain this atmosphere, instructors must evaluate the academic performance of students fairly and students must demonstrate their mastery of subject matter honorably. Any acts of academic dishonesty by students, such as plagiarism on written papers or cheating on exams, threaten to undermine the educational and ethical goals of the university for its students. Such violations are of the utmost seriousness. The goal of the following policy and procedures is to promote a climate of academic honesty at the University. B. Scope This policy applies to all undergraduate students.
