The University Honor Council
The University Honor Council (UHC) serves as the judicial board for undergraduate academic integrity and conduct-related affairs. Designated under the Charter of the Disciplinary System to serve on Disciplinary Hearing Panels for violations, the UHC is also charged to advise The Provost, The Office of Student Conduct, and other administrative bodies on matters concerning the Code of Academic Integrity and the Code of Student Conduct. Members of the UHC are also designated under the Student Judicial Charter to educate the Penn community on, and to promote the ideals of, academic integrity and decent conduct.
The UHC actively lobbies all parts of the University to promote academic integrity and ethical conduct. We strive to achieve these by educating fellow students via various campaigns and presentations. We are independent from all other student groups, and receive funding and support through the Office of the Provost. This website provides an opportunity to learn more about academic integrity and conduct at Penn, as well as about the Honor Council's educational outreach efforts. If you have any questions, please e-mail the Honor Council.
