What UW's own pages say about how cases proceed

Who may be present

"If the student wishes to be accompanied at the hearing by an advisor of the student's choice, the student must notify the Hearing Officer at least five (5) working days prior to the hearing. The role of advisor shall only be to consult with the student, not to represent the student." — UW Regulation 2-114, §V.D.2.e (revisions adopted 9/12/2019; retrieved Oct 8, 2026). The instructor may likewise bring an advisor under the same consult-only limit. Recording of the hearing itself is not addressed anywhere in the Regulation.

What follows on the record

The Regulation defines where a finding is kept and who may see it: "Central Repository: The location at the University where disciplinary records are maintained per the University's record retention schedule. Access is limited to the Dean of Students and the academic deans and/or designees and any other employees of the University who have a legitimate need to know." No specific retention period, transcript-notation rule, or disclosure to a party outside the University (an employer, a licensing board) is stated anywhere in the Regulation; not stated in the sources reviewed.

The two questions an adviser raises first, answered from this institution's own published documents — or recorded as not stated in them.

UW Regulation 2-114 (Student Academic Dishonesty) runs a case through the Instructor, the academic Department Head, a College Coordinator, and — if the student disputes the charge — a College Hearing Officer, with appeal to a University Appeals Coordinator designated by the Provost (no on-page date displayed for the page hosting it; the Regulation's own history lists its last Board of Trustees revision as 9/12/2019; retrieved Oct 8, 2026):

Source: UW Regulation 2-114 — Student Academic Dishonesty, linked from the Dean of Students' Student Code of Conduct page as "Information about Academic Dishonesty at UW." Authorized sanctions range from extra or alternative work and a grade reduction through suspension and dismissal from the University; a second finding carries a mandatory one-year suspension and a third results in mandatory dismissal.

Revision history of this page

2026-10-08 — Page created in an unattended scheduled build pass; not a human review. All quotations retrieved this date from the pages linked beside them; none displays its own on-page revision date except UW Regulation 2-114, whose own history section dates its last Board of Trustees revision to 9/12/2019, and the Student Code of Conduct page, which states it has been in effect since July 1, 2025. A named-vendor sweep (Turnitin and its AI-writing indicator, SimCheck, Originality, Copyleaks, iThenticate, GPTZero, Originality.ai, Winston AI, Crossplag, ZeroGPT, Packback, Grammarly Authorship, Honorlock, Proctorio, Respondus, Examity) and a category sweep (the ECTL knowledge base, UW Regulation 2-114, the Student Code of Conduct, the Dean of Students' pages) found no AI-text or plagiarism detector deployed — the ECTL's own knowledge base states it affirmatively ("We don't have an institutional license") rather than leaving the question silent, and separately discourages plagiarism-checker use. Gradescope is institutionally licensed but for AI-assisted grading of an instructor's own evaluation, which the page itself does not describe as plagiarism or AI-writing detection; that distinction is preserved on the page. Honorlock (exam proctoring) and the Respondus LockDown Browser (exam lockdown, "not a proctoring solution") were found on the WyoCourses Integrations FAQ and recorded for completeness; neither description claims either evaluates writing for AI generation. The dedicated Respondus FAQ page the initial sweep located (uwyo.edu/students/respondusfaq) returned a 404 on re-check and was dropped in favor of the WyoCourses Integrations page, which states the same point and was already in the recipe. A lead not used. Two University of Wyoming Board of Trustees contract-disclosure search snippets (a March 2026 and a September 2025 public-session report) named "Turnitin LLC" among contract line items, which would complicate the ECTL's "no institutional license" statement if confirmed. The underlying PDF could not be located at a stable URL in this pass — the board's agenda-and-reports pages returned 404s and 500s to direct navigation, and the search snippet text is not a first-party capture — so nothing from it is stated on the page; a future pass with working navigation to the Board of Trustees site should resolve this rather than leave it unmentioned. Office finding. UW's academic-dishonesty process is administered by college-level Coordinators and Hearing Officers under Regulation 2-114, with appeals to a Provost-designated University Appeals Coordinator, rather than by a single central integrity office; the Dean of Students Office is named because it is the office the Student Code of Conduct page itself uses as the landing point and general contact for academic-dishonesty information, and because the Regulation names it as having Central Repository access. Ombuds finding. UW's Office of the Ombuds meets this site's independence/confidentiality bar on its own description, but its own page states it "is temporarily closed," with the Office of the President named as the point of contact in the interim — recorded as both facts together rather than either alone. Deliberately not used: a department-level (Communication across the Curriculum) assessment-findings PDF that recommended the university "invest in AI detection software such as GPTZero," which was not added to the capture recipe and is not quoted, since it is one committee's internal recommendation rather than an institutional statement, though its existence is consistent with the ECTL page's own statement that no such license exists. Internet Archive captures: to be added. Reviewer: Carrie Schluter (review confirmed 2026-10-08).
