+ Plagiarism & Academic Integrity Policy

At SCMUN, we want to give each delegate a fair chance at performing well in committee. Thus, we ask that delegates adhere to the following policies to uphold the integrity of our conference:

• No pre-written resolutions, crisis notes, or directives are allowed.
• All position papers must be original work. Plagiarism from other delegates or research sources is unacceptable. Please ensure that your papers are properly cited.

Should any delegate be found in violation of these policies, their advisor will be notified. Serious instances of this may affect a delegate's eligibility to receive a committee award.

+ Diplomacy, Respect, and Anti-Discrimination Policy

As with all Model United Nations conferences, delegates are expected to be diplomatic and respectful to their fellow delegates. Should chairs or members of our Secretariat feel as if delegates are violating this policy, their advisors will be notified. We do not condone racism, xenophobia, sexism, or any forms of discrimination. As a USC-affiliated event, more details on specific policies can be found here. Please use the Anonymous Reporting Form to ensure staff can work to rectify the situation as soon as possible.

Furthermore, delegates are requested to wear Western Business Attire while in committee.

+ Technology Policy

In Crisis Committees, technology of any kind will not be allowed during committee sessions.

In General Assemblies, technology will only be allowed during unmoderated caucus for the sole purpose of writing papers and facilitating mergers.
