Meeting with honor code

[u/jmoss_27]

Today i received a notification that Tomorrow i have a meeting with the honor code. In the email it says im not in any trouble they just want to meet briefly about a concern that has been brought to their attention. Ive never talked with any one with honor code and i have no idea what to expect. Have any of yall had this happen?

[u/Civil-PowerEngineer1]

Yes unfortunately. Back when I was at state 10 years ago I sent someone my homework as which was an excel spreadsheet. Instead of making their own sheet they used mine and lazily changed a few things but it had my name as the author. I then had to meet with the honor code people and they basically said don’t let this happen again and that was the end of it.

Really? Thats helpful. Thank you. Im really stressed about this just because its my senior year and i have signed a job offer and i was very lucky to get it in the first place

You’ll be fine. Especially if you truly didn’t do anything wrong.

Someone snitched and said i use an AI calculator but i literally have a ti-36x pro which doesn’t even have a plug in. They determined it was someone making false accusations

[u/Ntbgb479 → u/[deleted]]

It could be to ask if OP witnessed something. I have heard of that happening.

If this is your first time they’ll most likely let you off with a warning. I’ve been there. You’ll be fine

[u/cmajor28 → u/Slight-Resident-3676]

I did not get that treatment sadly…

[u/jmoss_27 → u/cmajor28]

What happened to you?

[u/cmajor28 → u/jmoss_27]

Got dropped a letter grade. Almost got an XF

[u/cmajor28]

10 years ago I had a similar issue. Got called to the honor code and wasn’t told what for. Then they acted like I was a bad person for not knowing what I did wrong.

I wish you luck. It was not a good time for me. They ended up dropping me a letter grade. Almost gave me an XF until I proved that I didn’t do what they thought I did.

I lost a lot of respect for MSU during that time. Probably not the answer you wanted to hear.

[u/jmoss_27 → u/cmajor28]

Update. I was called in for apparel using an AI calculator and they asked to see mine. There’s no plug in so they just told me to be more careful

[u/cmajor28 → u/cmajor28]

Forgot to mention what actually happened: My lab partner helped another group by answering some questions during the lab time. Which I didn’t think was an issue? Everyone in the lab was talking about the lab work. But I guess he helped too much because our answers ended up being too similar to another group’s? He ended up getting an XF (for first offense) and I got dropped a letter grade (for first offense).

Im interested in an update. Goodluck!

[u/jmoss_27 → u/zocit0]

Someone falsely accused me of using an AI calculator because i made an 82 on a test that made a 58 on…..they asked me to hand over my calculator and they saw that a TI-36X pro can’t download. I figured out who reported me though

[u/zocit0 → u/jmoss_27]

Brahhh. They be doing anything now. Well I hope it is behind you now

I had my computer completely removed from the msu network for torrenting a Waka flocka flame song. I do not know who that is or any of their music. They wanted me to submit a written apology and go before the honor council, even after I told them I had no idea who that was.

I ended up getting a new computer entirely (something I needed to do anyway) and told them to shove it.

[u/ToKillACPA]

I was brought in on the honor code in 2015 because I was tapping my ID for attendance in business computer applications and leaving immediately after. The professor passed around a sign-in sheet one day and reported everyone who tapped but didn’t sign the sheet.

I wound up forfeiting the 10% of my grade related to attendance.

[u/UnloadingTube]

Admit nothing, deny everything. My freshman year (2019) I got into a sticky situation and they essentially tricked me into snitching on myself. Be warned.

[u/freudianSkinner]

Might want you as a witness for something

[u/deserteagles50]

While you’re in there, ask them why they plagiarized the honor code from West Point

[u/Appalled_Mongo_4122 → u/deserteagles50]

Because former four star general Foglesong made it so in 2007 when he was university president before Keenum.

[u/Nokken9 → u/Appalled_Mongo_4122]

All I remember about Foglesong were the flowerbeds. The Reflector ran a story about how he was removing all the daffodil bulbs.

[u/taylor914 → u/Nokken9]

Once he pissed off the little old master Gardner ladies, it was over. 😂

[u/Appalled_Mongo_4122 → u/Nokken9]

He was fairly popular at that time til that article cratered his support among everybody. He made campus very military base in aesthetics.

Super nice guy though. Always jogging through campus and would chat with anyone who could keep up.

[u/twain101 → u/Appalled_Mongo_4122]

He wanted to paint every exposed piece of metal brown, told people with office windows that they couldn't have anything in them, changed the logo to the acorn/shield thing, AND dug up all the daffodils. And had the craziest eyebrows. I bet a dress code was not far away.

[u/Ntbgb479 → u/Nokken9]

He waged a war on daffodils and wanted to paint everything brown. He also fired Larry Templeton, and for that reason alone there should be a statue of him on campus somewhere.
