Thanks Cheryl.

This makes a lot of sense. I took a quick look through this information. Any number of infractions could be investigated by OSC. Certainly the academic violations would go here.

An interesting comment that states both "community service" could be required or criminal charges could be filed. I could not find anything to clarify but I would expect that an actual transfer of the case would need to be transferred to the Office of Public Safety and not just the punishment.

There is no indication that students would be transferred to the Office of Public Safety unless some criminal infraction occurred. So in this case, I still can't understand why the Office of Public Safety was involved in the news reports? If a criminal complaint was made to Penn Police, it still should have been Municipal Court and UCD apologizing to the students not Public Safety.

It makes sense that Office of Public Safety includes both law enforcement and security but not punishment for any OSC violations. Just trying to think this through?

Thanks again,
Glenn

If the Penn Office of Public Safety has an internal process for handling academic infractions, they probably should indicate its existence publicly. This is what I couldn't understand.

The Office of Public Safety doesn't handle academic or other Penn infractions. This is done through the Office of Student Conduct. See item #2 at
