College of Law Policies
With respect to academic integrity, The University of Arizona Main Campus has adopted a Code of Academic Integrity that sets forth prohibited conduct, sanctions, student responsibility, faculty responsibility, student rights, and appeal procedures. The College of Law has adopted similar prohibitions, rights, requirements and procedures embodied in its Honor Code. There can be no choice of academic integrity Codes. Law students are required to comply with and are subject to the procedures contained in the Honor Code. Note, however, that when a law student takes classes on main campus, transactions regarding those classes are governed by the Main Campus Code of Academic Integrity.
Additionally, all students are subject to the Student Code of Conduct (ABOR 5-308 et seq.) and other policies adopted by the University.
The University Code of Academic Integrity and the Student Code of Conduct are found in http://deanofstudents.arizona.edu/codeofacademicintegrity
and http://deanofstudents.arizona.edu/policiesandcodes/studentcodeofconduct
at this University.
Law students are, as are all students, subject to the Student Code of Conduct (ABOR 5-308 et seq.) and other policies adopted by the University. The Code of Conduct spells out Prohibited Conduct and sanctions for such conduct. Additionally, student conduct which violates state or federal law has a bearing on the fitness to practice law, and must be reported by the student when applying to take the bar exam. Further, any conviction in a student’s file must be reported by the College of Law when asked to certify the student for bar admission.
The College of Law takes seriously its responsibility to foster civility and professionalism in its students. It is expected that students will timely respond to faculty and staff requests for information or meetings to discuss matters of concern. It is further expected that students will, at all times, deal courteously with fellow students, staff, faculty and administrators.
