Academic Misconduct Forms for Faculty/GSIs

Faculty Disposition & Referral Form

 

This form is used by faculty in academic misconduct situations (i.e., cheating, plagiarism, etc.). The form allows you to indicate if the student accepts responsibility for the alleged violation and you have resolved the matter together, or if you are referring it to us due to circumstances impeding resolution.

Please note that the Center may request further documentation as part of the information-seeking process and encourages you to consider submitting the following information along with this completed form to expedite the process:

  • a copy of the course syllabus
  • the original version of the work in question (i.e., test/quiz, essay, blue book, lab report, etc.)
  • other supporting documentation (i.e., sources, other students’ work, correspondence with student, etc.)

Full procedures and suggestions for speaking with students about these issues are outlined here [campuslife.berkeley.edu/conduct/reporting-misconduct]. Staff members are available for consultation at 510-643-9069 or at studentconduct@berkeley.edu if you have questions.

Request to Expunge Student Conduct Record

Request to Expunge Student Conduct Record Form

 

Disciplinary records may be expunged early by the Dean of Students or his/her designee for good cause, upon written request of a student who has a disciplinary record. With rare exception, most student conduct records are retained for four years from the notice of the final outcome or until graduation, whichever occurs first.

Disciplinary records retained for less than 120 days or designated as “permanent” shall not be expunged without unusual and compelling justification. For more information regarding maintenance of student conduct records, please see the Berkeley Campus Code of Student Conduct.

Please allow up to ten (10) business days for your request to be processed. Once granted, expunged files will be removed from active disciplinary records and shall not leave the student with a disciplinary record.
