Prepare Hearings

How do I find out if a student has filed an appeal?

You will be notified at the email address registered through Campus Connect if a student appeals a violation that you have filed.

What do I have to do if a student appeals a violation I have filed?

In anticipation of a hearing, you will be asked to take several steps in order to allow us to best support the process and to ensure that your perspective, as well as the student's, is heard. You are the one with comprehensive information of the circumstances and we rely on you to inform the Board of the situation involved.

If you have not already done so, please forward to Laura Hartman (Dept. of Management, DePaul Center, Ste. 7000) copies of everything that led you to the decision to sanction the student, including a copy of your syllabus, assignment, or other appropriate course-related documents.
If this case involves a proctor, GA, or other witness, advise that person that they are expected to attend the hearing or ask that person to write a short, specific statement explaining their involvement.
To facilitate copying for distribution to hearing panelists, make any notations on these documents - to show what has been plagiarized, for example - in pen rather than highlighter.

When is the hearing and do I have to be there?

You are the one with comprehensive information of the circumstances and we rely on you to inform the Board of the situation involved.

Hearings are scheduled during week eight or nine of the quarter following the one in which the violation occurred.
Your attendance at the hearing is required by the Academic Integrity Policy.
The Board will absolutely accommodate your teaching schedule in planning this hearing; however, due to the significant number of individuals who must be scheduled in connection with these hearings, the Chair is only asked to take into account class schedules of all participants.
Therefore, if you are otherwise unable to attend, the Academic Integrity Policy asks that you arrange for a colleague to represent your position. Please be kind enough to alert Dr. Bryant as soon as you receive notice if you have any questions about scheduling at lbryant2@depaul.edu.
