Computer science student Melissa Woghiren signs a pledge as an Ambassador for Academic Integrity, overseen by fellow plenipotentiary Catherine Liu.
Student volunteers pledged Friday to act as Ambassadors for Academic Integrity.
The Office of Academic Integrity has issued certificates of appreciation to 55 individuals for their contributions to a campus culture of integrity.
Her new position is a vital part of the university, says Danieli Arbex, who started a six-month term as academic integrity officer on November 26.
“When we provide our students with a proper education in integrity, it gives them the ability to apply lessons of right and wrong right from the beginning of their professional careers,” she says.
Dr. Arbex practised law in her native Brazil and holds advanced law degrees from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She has been teaching in the UWindsor economics program since 2010.
