What should I do if I am accused of academic misconduct at a college or university in Nebraska?

If you're a student at a college or university in Nebraska and you're facing an academic misconduct charge, it needs to be taken seriously. Academic misconduct charges come in various forms: plagiarism, not citing properly on a paper, cheating on an exam. Whatever the charge may be, it's important that it be favorably resolved because it can definitely impact future and present opportunities. It can impact graduate school internships, employment, professional licensing opportunities.

Different schools use different resolution methods. Some schools use an investigation, some hearing, some accommodation. What's your school's appeal process? Because schools are, unfortunately, often in a rush to judgment and are not mindful of a student's rights and interest, an experienced attorney-adviser can help navigate the process, can protect the student's rights, and can potentially allow for a more favorable outcome.
