Academic Integrity Matters
Academic Integrity Matters (AIM) is a program offered to students who have been accused of scholastic dishonesty and accept responsibility for violating the Student Conduct Code. Eligible students participate in a community meeting where they discuss the impact of scholastic dishonesty and agree to participate in educational opportunities to demonstrate understanding of academic integrity. Upon successful completion of the program, student records will become “non-disciplinary”.
