University Committee on the Honor Code

The University Committee on the Honor Code has general oversight of the Honor Code and of academic dishonesty on campus.

Its responsibilities include:

  • assisting in the education of the Notre Dame community about the Honor Code
  • discussing on a periodic basis procedural questions that may have arisen in past cases and how these can best be resolved for future cases
  • reviewing standard penalties invoked for certain kinds of violations so that consistency and fairness may be maintained
  • proposing revisions to the Honor Code and generally promoting high standards of integrity in academics.
