What UCCS's own pages say about how cases proceed

Who may be present

"The student has the right to be accompanied by an advisor, who, with at least five (5) business days' written notice to the AECC Chair, may be an attorney. […] Advisors are not permitted to speak for, or on behalf of, the charged student. However, with permission from the AECC Chair, advisors may make a statement and/or ask questions of the student." On recording: "The Review hearing shall be audio recorded by the AECC. No other recording of the Review hearing is permitted." — Student Academic Ethics Code, Policy 200-019 (effective Feb 1, 2018; retrieved Oct 2, 2026) · Student Academic Ethics Code

What follows on the record

"[N]otice of a UCCS expulsion for Code violation will be placed on the student's transcript by the Office of the Registrar." Separately: "All documentation relating to a Code violation is considered a student educational record and, to the extent required by law, is kept confidential. Documentation concerning Code violations will be kept in the Office of the Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs." The policy states a transcript notation for expulsion specifically; it does not state a transcript-notation rule for a lesser sanction, or a general retention period for case documentation (only that an AECC hearing's audio recording is kept "for six years"). — Student Academic Ethics Code, Policy 200-019 (effective Feb 1, 2018; retrieved Oct 2, 2026) · Student Academic Ethics Code

Revision history of this page

2026-10-02 — Page created. Named-vendor sweep (Turnitin, SimCheck, Originality, Copyleaks, iThenticate, GPTZero, Originality.ai, Winston AI, Crossplag, ZeroGPT, Packback, Grammarly Authorship, Honorlock, Proctorio, Respondus, Examity) and category sweep (the Faculty Resource Center, the Office of Information Technology's AI page, and a library AI research guide) found Turnitin (plagiarism checking, via FRC) and iThenticate as the only named tools on an institutional page; no institutional page names an AI-writing-detection feature. A UCCS student newspaper (The Scribe) article describing Turnitin's AI detection in detail, including Turnitin's own published false-positive statistics, was found and read in full; it is independent student journalism rather than an official UCCS page and is not used as evidence of institutional deployment, consistent with the skill's rule that a third-party claim is not evidence of deployment. NOT DISQUALIFIED: empty institutional inventory, not a documented deactivation. CU BOULDER NOTE: Boulder is Excluded first-party in this collection (2026-08-24) on a campus OIT page; UCCS is a separate CU System campus with its own policies and was researched independently rather than inheriting that finding, per the carryover note on this entry. TWO-DOCUMENT STRUCTURE CONFIRMED, NOT A TRAP THIS TIME: UCCS keeps academic-integrity matters (Student Academic Ethics Code, Policy 200-019, Office of the Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs) organizationally separate from the general Student Code of Conduct (Office of the Dean of Students, a different document); this page uses Policy 200-019 throughout section 02 because it is the academic-integrity-specific process, and names the Dean of Students only as the general-conduct contact in the docket, not as a substitute source for Code-violation process facts. OFFICE NAMING: the policy itself directs an accused student to "the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Student Success"; current UCCS leadership pages show that title has since changed (the position is now styled Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs), but a reachable, current first-party page naming the office's own phone or email under either title was not located this pass — recorded as a published gap rather than filled by inference. OMBUDS: a UCCS Ombuds Office is confirmed by a 2018 Communique (staff newsletter) article with explicit impartiality/independence/confidentiality language, serving "faculty, staff and students." A 2026 HR "Campus Resources" page independently references a current, recently-reformed Ombuds Program, but hr.uccs.edu returned an HTTP 403 to this pass's transport and the office's own live pages (ombuds.uccs.edu, compliance.uccs.edu) returned a TLS certificate mismatch (cert issued for *.pantheon.io / *.getpantheon.com rather than ombuds.uccs.edu) reproducible from this environment — both deferred rather than captured, per the skill's instruction not to improvise a broad workaround. The docket entry rests on the 2018 source with its date disclosed, not on the unreachable current pages. Nothing paraphrase-pending. Traces to tools/packets/uccs-packet.txt with zero failures; gated in tools/fidelity-gate.txt. Archive captures pending — not requested this pass (unattended scheduled run). Reviewer: Carrie Schluter (review confirmed 2026-10-02).
