The advisory committee will be chaired by the Provost and Vice-President, Academic, Jennifer S. Its work will result in recommendations that will be submitted to the university leadership for consideration and will ultimately go to the Board of Governors for a decision before the end of this academic year. The advisory committee, in consultation with our entire community, will help put into action one of the most significant changes in our university’s history. I am pleased to share that, as a next step, an advisory committee has been assembled to guide the process of identifying a new name for the institution that reflects our university’s strengths, values and aspirations.

Study hard, stay well, and don’t cheat.As announced on August 26, the university Board of Governors accepted all 22 recommendations in the Standing Strong (Mash Koh Wee Kah Pooh Win ) Task Force’s final report, including renaming our institution. Higher level stats can be found in the Annual Report of the Committee on Student Discipline. We can’t advertise individual outcomes because of our obligation to student privacy, but this doesn’t mean there aren’t serious consequences.

People think nothing happens if you cheat or plagiarize, but that’s definitely not true. More serious cases can result in a Reprimand, which is a permanent record held by the Office of the Dean of Students and can affect a students’ application to graduate school or other careers after University. First-time or relatively “minor” issues often result in an Admonishment, which is a finding of responsibility but isn’t a permanent disciplinary record. After a first offence, students are often placed on Conduct Probation if they are caught again while on probation the consequences can be more serious. Generally speaking, if students are caught cheating they receive a failing grade on the assignment or test in question (which can sometimes result in a failure in the whole course). They oversee the Disciplinary Process, which can be “interview” style, or a visit to the Committee on Student Discipline. If you cheat, any allegation against you gets forwarded to a Disciplinary Officer in your Faculty. Hopefully all of you have done the Academic Integrity Module, so you’re aware of what it means to do honest work.

I saw a question on Reddit the other day, asking what happens if someone gets caught cheating (or, by extension, for any academic offence) at McGill.
