Student Conduct & Community Standards Annual Report 23-24

Fiscal Year 23-24: July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024

Prepared by: Kyle Wilson, Director of Student Conduct & Community Standards

Definitions
1. Maxfest: the annual conference for Maxient,
2. Maxient: the conduct software we use within Student Conduct & Community Standards to track conduct and academic integrity issues. Additionally, the Bias Incident Response Group, Care Team, Student Health Services, General Counsel, Office of Institutional Equity and Compliance, and Student Advocate utilize this system to track a variety of cases.
3. Association of Student Conduct Administrators (ASCA): the national organization for conduct offices in the US and Canada.

Directors Message
Student Conduct & Community Standards has had an exciting year of change, focused on enhancements to improve the student experience with our office, and strengthened our partnership with Academic Affairs/Faculty Senate.

While many of our staff transitioned out of SCCS, they all moved into higher roles at Wichita State University within other Student Affair’s offices. SCCS was also able to hire an Assistant Director for the coming year.

SCCS focused on the student experience this year by enhancing resources available on our website, focusing on student retention and satisfaction, and ensuring we were reaching students through our tabling initiatives and promotional items.

Our partnership with Academic Affairs/Faculty Senate is ever growing, and SCCS focused on providing more trainings through the Academic Integrity 101 sessions offered monthly through MyTrainings and our ARC Presentations. Additionally, we were more transparent about Academic integrity Hearings by posting scripts on our website. Lastly, SCCS ensured that we kept open communication with Faculty Senate by attending multiple meetings this year, communicating with Deans, and providing trainings to various departments that requested them.

It is our goal to Create Responsible Shockers with everything we do, and I believe we continue to do that everyday through our meetings with students and continued outreach to the campus community.

Go Shockers!

The funds spent on marketing materials allow our office to be forward facing at the university. These documents allow
students, staff, and faculty to learn more about the processes we have in place at WSU and provide opportunities for
anyone to volunteer within our office and serve on the Student Conduct Board or Academic Integrity Committee. We
created multiple new flyers/handouts this academic year to continue to support the work we do. Additionally, the funds
used on Advertising/Promo Items allow our office to have tangible items to hand to student, staff, and faculty while
tabling or promoting our office. This year we created a “Know the Code” campaign for our Promo items, so they are
more educational and exciting than the SCCS office logo.

3. Funds spent on Office Hospitality

The funds spent on hospitality allow students to have a drink or snack while meeting with us. This helps create a more
