Student Discipline and Academic Misconduct

Serving both UW-Platteville campuses, the Dean of Students Office encourages honesty, integrity, and respect among UW-Platteville students and promotes responsibility through an environment of accepting consequences of behavior. The Dean of Students Office responsibilities regarding student discipline are two-fold: to ensure that students are treated fairly, and to hold students accountable to university policies and regulations.  The Office is guided in this responsibility by Chapters 14, 17, and 18 of the Wisconsin Administrative Code and by those regulations specific to UW-Platteville.

Student Misconduct Hearing Committee

Instances of student misconduct may be adjudicated through the Dean of Students Office, or in instances of academic misconduct, a faculty member.  Students may appeal decisions to a Student Misconduct Hearing Committee. In some instances, these decisions may be appealed to the Chancellor.
