Student code changes proposed
By Came Dennett
Emwaki As*f> ate t.drtof
Proposed jmimdmunls to the Student (.on
Hud Code would change how academic dis
honesty charges and minor Infractions arc re
solved
One amendment would give far ultv and stu
dents a greater role in serious or contested
cases o! at adenm dishonesty
Academic dishonesty coses are currently
heard In one of five lot al attorneys who serve
as hearings officers tinder the amendment,
cases' would lie heart! by three memliers ol an
At ad' : - Dishonesty Hearing Board. int lut)
ing at least tire student and one faculty mom
her
'Tm a Is'lievi r of judgment by peers, salt!
University Student Conduct Coordinator
i.ialne Cr<cn At ademit: dishonesty is some
thing other students are cone ornnd about
At the same time Cniversitv faculty -ire ex
pi-t li-ii to uphold guidelines of ai ademit integ
rity, tint have little role in enforcing those
guidelines
Creen salt! fat ultv tiffcn n, . re ' trust the t ur•
rent system to do Its job
Because of tins distrust ■ >, i, some fac
ulty yvill not use the stllde'.' lii.duCt system
Instead of reporting susp- s d it. ! 1 'lesty. they
may take matters into then men hands by pe
nali/mg students through grades or other
measures
Its imjitirtant that faculty use tt - ■ vstem to
gi\ i students their due pn>i ess !■■en said
However. Marlene Do st he Im tor ol the
Office lit Student Adyia.icy el there is a
wide gap betvvisn the p-ri eption that the cur
rent system does not work, and the n a!:ly
There ari' very few students w!io get off
suit-free," she said
"The data show that when far ultv do come
forward with a report of academic dishonesty,
the students are punished, l)rt*M her said
Faculty already play a major role in academ
li dishonesty (uses, she sail! because when a
student is found guilty, the student's professor
decides the punishment
Drescher said academic dishonesty hearings
need to remain m the hands of a trained attor
ney.
"These cases are like mini-trials." she said
"They c reate a record that can he for warded to
the court of ajijieals
Offu luting at an a< .idemit dishonesty hear
trig requires a lertain expertise, Dresi her ■'.nil
ami the University could be put in an unrorn
fortable situation if students start appealing
i ases heard hv an insufficiently trained fxiard
Also, using people from outside the I !niver
sitv creates a perception of fairness that is vital
to maintain the system s integrity, she said
"it worries me when we start messing with
due process and disciplinary hearings," Hres
( her said
(Teen said the University is the only instilu
lion in the Oregon State System of Higher lain
iBtion that uses an outside lawyer for dis
honesty i ases
"I've had a! least seven different lawyers
look at the rules,' she said, "and they said
there is nothing in the administrative rules
that says (the hearing officer) has to lie some
one with legal authority
However. Dresi her said there is an Oregon
Administrative rule that distint fly says that
the hearing officer must tie a graduate of a law
school The student conduct code falls under
the OAKs
The Hearing Hoard would be made up of
five faculty and five students The fatuity
would fie appointed hv the University presi
dent to serve staggered two year terms on the
hoard ASUO recommended students would
be appointed bv the president to one-year
terms
A second amendment would allow an infor
mal resolution of minor conduct infractions
when a student fails to respond to a complaint
issued bv the Student Conduct Coordinator.
Currently, if a student fails to make .in ap
pointment vs ith ( Teen's office when requested,
or makes an appointment tint fails to show up.
the student is automatically sent through the
formal hearings process
(Teen said tins si enario only happens with a
few students each year, but resolving the in
fra* lions through the formal process is a waste
of time for both students and the hearings offi
cer.
The third amendment would allow disci
plinary action against any University student
or student organization responsible fur any fire
hazard
The current rode states that the behavior
must lie a "significant" fire hazard.
The amendments will lie discussed and vot
ed on at the Man h 11 University Senate meet
ing. and Ixith proponents and opponents are
ported to testify.
