The Honor Code Council
The Honor Code Council (hereinafter the "Council") shall consist of
six faculty members and twelve students. Each year's class shall be represented
by three students. These students shall be nominated by the Medical Center
Student Council in consultation with the Council and approved by the dean.
The faculty shall be selected by the Chair of the Medical Student Evaluation
Committee [MSEC] and approved by the dean. The Chair of the Council, who
shall be a member of the faculty, shall be appointed by the dean. To ensure
continuity, faculty and Chair terms of appointment will be three years
and staggered, with the possibility of two contiguous terms of appointment.
Students will be encouraged to renominate their representative members.
Members of the Council shall serve as reference persons for students
and faculty. Furthermore, the Council as a whole shall be charged with
the continued monitoring of the Honor Code system. It shall review all
cases of alleged Honor Code violations that have been submitted to a Subcommittee
on Professional Comportment in order to educate the academic community
following the resolution of each case. It shall meet periodically during
the academic year and report its findings to the MSEC, including suggested
amendments to the Honor Code. Members of the Council shall serve on a Subcommittee
on Professional Comportment convened as an Honor Code Committee either
to review an alleged violation of the Honor Code or to recommend sanctions
in established cases of Honor Code violation.
