Temple University has an approved Integrity
Policy. The Integrity officer is Dr. Kenneth
Soprano. If there is a possible violation, the
charge should be brought to Dr. Soprano's attention.
Misconduct may include fabrication, plagiarism,
falsification and failure to comply with the
proper conduct of research. After the review
of the charge made in good faith, the integrity
officer will refer the situation to an inquiry
committee to determine possible misconduct.
If the committee considers there to be probable
cause, then it is referred to an investigation
committee. If they concur, that there is misconduct,
the case will then be referred to the President
for possible sanction. All faculty must receive
training in the integrity procedures.
