Responsibilities of UT Austin Students

The University of Texas at Austin expects all students to obey the law, to show respect for other members of the university community, to maintain absolute integrity and a high standard of individual honor in scholastic work, and to observe standards of conduct appropriate for a community of scholars.

The process for students accused of violating Institutional Rules is spelled out in detail in Chapter 11 of Appendix C in the General Information catalog. Disciplinary action cannot be taken against a student unless university procedures are followed. If you find yourself accused of scholastic dishonesty and have questions about the process, you may contact Student Judicial Services at 512-471-2841 or the Office of the Ombudsman at 512-471-3825. You can also find an interactive tutorial on academic integrity and the disciplinary process at deanofstudents.utexas.edu/sjs/ under 'Spotlights' on the right-hand side of the Web page.

Chapter 11 of Appendix C of the General Information catalog which includes the Institutional Rules on Student Services and Activities may be accessed via the Web at deanofstudents.utexas.edu/sjs/. Students must also agree to use university computing resources responsibly to protect their own systems, UT systems and those of other users.
