By educating students and investigating cases, our Honor Council helps teach everyone that we take academic integrity seriously at The U.
The Undergraduate Honor Council was established in 1986 through a student referendum with the goal of upholding our university to a higher standard both inside and outside the classroom, as articulated through the Honor Code.
Our purpose is twofold: to educate the University community and to adjudicate. The students who established the Honor Code were committed to enhancing the academic quality of our institutions and creating an environment where cheating plagiarism, collusion and other forms of academic dishonesty would not be tolerated.
The Council consists of representatives from the undergraduate schools selected each year for a one-year term by the Selection and Appeals Committee.
Applications Open Each Spring Semester
