WITHDRAWAL OF A DEGREE
 

The university reserves the right to withdraw a degree even though it
has been granted should there be discovery that the work upon which it
was based or the academic records in support of it had been falsified.
In such a case the degree will be withdrawn promptly upon discovery of
the falsification.
