Student Conduct

The Student Conduct and Community Standards Program administers policies and procedures that support the academic and educational purposes of the University by ensuring a safe learning environment, protecting student rights, and addressing behaviors that may violate the standards set forth by the University. Any community member with concerns about the conduct of PSU students should reach out to Student Conduct and Community Standards for policy information, resources, and options for addressing such concerns. Students who have been alleged to have violated the Code will receive notice of the allegations, information about the process, and an opportunity to provide a response and information. For more information about the Code and Conduct Review Process, please visit www.pdx.edu/dean-student-life/student-conduct-community-standards.

Academic Integrity

The policy governing academic integrity is part of the Code of Student Conduct and Responsibility. Academic integrity is a cornerstone of the University and upholds the integrity of educational programs and degrees. The Code of Student Conduct and Responsibility, which applies to all students, prohibits all forms of academic misconduct  and provides a process under which alleged academic misconduct will be reviewed and addressed. Academic misconduct includes, but is not limited to, cheating, plagiarism, buying and selling of course assignments, performing academic assignments for other persons, and unauthorized collaboration.
