What is Academic Honesty?
The Guidelines for Academic Conduct from the University of Saskatchewan can be found here.
What is Academic Misconduct?
"Academic Misconduct" is what the university calls cheating. The University of Saskatchewan Regulations on Student Academic Misconduct provides a list of academically dishonest behaviour.
When an instructor or invigilator believes a student has cheated, the University of Saskatchewan Regulations on Student Academic Misconduct now lists two procedures which can be followed. These regulations came into effect January 1, 2017.
