The ongoing revision process of University of Wisconsin System non-academic misconduct policies (UWS 17 and 18) has elicited a prolonged and lively debate on the merits of these amendments. In addition to a campus forum co-hosted by the Offices of the Dean of Students and the Associated Students of Madison, there have been numerous editorials and individual discussions. While I am glad the university community engaged on this issue, I feel through the course of this discussion, participants have lost sight of a few of key points about the revisions.
