Academic Dishonesty Policy

Student Rights & Responsibilities Section 5: Academic dishonesty is prohibited at the University of Louisville. It is a serious offense because it diminishes the quality of scholarship, makes accurate evaluation of student progress impossible, and defrauds those in society who must ultimately depend upon the knowledge and integrity of the institution and its students and faculty.

Considerations for Smart Social Media Use

Online habits are changing rapidly from that of a closed, private environment to an open and sharing culture. While this may bring about positive results, it is important to be aware of the possible dangers. The University of Louisville community is committed to encouraging all persons, whether student, staff, or faculty, to accept responsibility for their personal behavior and future success.

UofL Commencement Recognition

UofL seeks to highlight individual students to illustrate the experiences many students have working towards graduation. We are looking for graduating students to share their “story.” Specifically students who have had a great or unique UofL experience, have exciting opportunities after graduation that may or may not related to their chosen major, or students who have overcome challenges on their way to graduation. Click here to submit a student for consideration.
