Honor Council

Investigating and Adjudicating Body of the Honor & Integrity System

92 Members: Faculty, Staff, and Students

The Honor Council is a vital component of the Honor & Integrity System. Honor Council members receive professional development in serving as case review board members and hearing panelists. Honor Council members are also tasked with educating the campus community about the K-State Honor & Integrity System, its policies and procedures. Honor Council members also adhere to the student development perspective of the Honor & Integrity System, as well as to the demands of strict confidentiality.

The honor council is made up of students, faculty, and staff from all colleges on campus and from various representative on campus. They are the decision makers when it comes to issues of academic integrity. Honor council members are emailed and asked to volunteer for various review boards or hearings through the semester (the days and times vary to fit various schedules of the students and faculty). Most times, the hearings would take about 1-1.5 hours. It is not something that would occur on a weekly basis, but is very flexible with the schedule of the Honor Council member. We are also aware that one semester might be better than other semesters. We would like for a student or faculty to serve a 2 year term (with the chance to serve a 3rd year if they want) and plan to serve on at least one hearing per month if possible.
