Student conduct decisions,
January through December 2001

Accusation: Use of alcohol and making inappropriate and harassing phone calls to students.
Action: Admitted making phone calls but without malicious intent. Required to attend a four-day in-house evaluation at a treatment program resulting in the following requirements: counseling and random body fluid testing; citizenship probation until graduation.
Meeting held: No.

Accusation: Failure to be present in the clinic on two consecutive days when the student had appointments with patients.
Action: Referral to Academic Review Committee for academic censure. Student was judged to have been careless with record keeping and thus the patients suffered. This occurrence should be treated as a professional conduct issue, not an ethical violation.
Meeting held: No.

Accusation: Looking on another student’s paper during an examination. It appeared to be cheating.
Action: It was determined that there was insufficient evidence to support any violation of ethical conduct. It was, however, clear that the student had not respected required behaviors of keeping eyes on one’s own paper. Warning was given that any further incident would be considered as a second offense.
Meeting held: No.
