Academic Integrity

Â鶹´«Ã½ is a community of learning in which integrity and mutual trust are vital. Since
the mission of SLU is "the pursuit of truth for the greater glory of God and for the service
of humanity," acts of integrity are essential to its very reason for existence. They also dignify and
strengthen the activities of teaching, research, health care, and community service that are its
primary mission.

Since the University seeks to prepare students and instructors for lives of integrity and occupations of trust, it regards academic integrity as a matter of serious import. Academic integrity is the foundation of the academic assessment process, which in turn sustains the ability of the University to certify to the outside world the skills and attainments of its graduates. Academic integrity allows those who practice it to contribute to a just and equitable learning environment that cultivates moral character and self-respect.

Academic Integrity Policy

The University Academic Integrity Policy sets out principles that are implicit in the ethos of the University but that call for explicit formulation to guide the practice of the entire institution. 

Student Handbook

The SLU Student Handbook is your guide to policies, community standards and other important information that can help you navigate your way as a Â鶹´«Ã½ student.
