VIII.
Penalties
-
The
Court shall submit recommendations for penalties to the Dean of the School
of Medicine who shall become responsible for implementation of that penalty.
The Dean has the discretion to alter this penalty after a review of the
court proceedings with the President of the Honor Court.
-
All
persons found guilty by the Honor Court of an Honor Code violation shall
have a written statement of the conviction entered in the permanent record
of that student. This written statement may only be removed if the first
appeals board, or Dean, overturns the conviction.
-
In
addition, one or more of the following recommendations may be made:
-
A
failing grade in the clerkship or course in which the offense occurred.
This shall involve the assigning of an Honor Court “F” which shall not
be negated with make-up of the involved work.
-
Comprehensive
re-examination, written and/or oral, over any or all of the work in the
involved course which had been covered prior to the time of conviction.
This shall require negation of previously assigned grades and require
reassignment of grades based on the re-examination.
-
Immediate
suspension for the remainder of the school year.
-
Immediate
expulsion from the School of Medicine.
-
The
Court may make any other recommendation which it feels would be appropriate
penalty.
-
If
the Court decides a grade change is warranted, this penalty shall be
implemented through the office of the Registrar and overseen by the Dean.
There will be no notification made to the course director about the trial or
the penalty in order to protect the guilty student from further punishment.
