have involved academic
dishonesty.'' Andrews said.
At Willamette University Law
School, students accused of
cheating face a student-faculty
committee that decides whether
the incident occurred.
Associate Dean Kathy Graham
said. Penalties range from repri
mand to expulsion, she said
"I've never heen aware of any
student found guilty of an of
fense here at the law school who
was then charged criminally.”
Graham said.
At Portland State University,
criminal prosecution of
students for alleged academic
dishonesty is not an option, ac
cording to Robert Vieira, assis
tant vice-provost for student
affairs.
In the eight years Vieira has
bean at PSU. no students have
been criminally charged for
academic dishonesty, he said.
“Students have t>een put on
probation, students have been
suspended, students have been
asked to do community service
and students have ijeen dismiss
ed for academic dishonesty at
this campus." V'ieira said.
According to Hils' attorney.
Daniel Goff of F.ugene, there are
questions as to why Hils is tieing
criminally prosecuted.
"I am deeply concerned that
in addition to proceedings
against Mr. Bits taken at the
University level under the stu
dent conduct code that there is a
parallel proceeding in the state
court at least with respect to the
term paper." Goff said.
"One could postulate the
University, or the law school in
particular, had some motivation
in Mr. Hils" case that they
wouldn't have had in an or
dinars’ student's case because of
Mr Bils' earlier campus ac
tivities But i certainly at this
point don't have any pn»of that
that is their motivation," he
said
Assistant District Attorney
Darryl (.arson. who is handling
the case, could not be reached
for comment Monday.
Bils was founder of a campus
group called UO Students fur
Kcpiity in Insurance. In tOHli he
threatened to sue the ASUC) for
alleged mismanagement of the
student health insurance pro
gram He also complained about
the condition of chairs at the
law school and about parking
tickets students were receiving
unfairly downtown.
