Honor Committee

An Honor Committee is a group typically found in educational institutions, tasked with upholding academic integrity and ethical standards. It investigates allegations of cheating, plagiarism, or other misconduct among students. The committee often reviews evidence, conducts hearings, and makes decisions about appropriate consequences for those found in violation of the code of conduct. Its main goal is to ensure fairness and accountability, promoting a culture of honesty within the academic community. This helps maintain trust in the institution and the value of its academic qualifications.
