Imho, a cheating policy that basically says "for cases of suspected cheating, the process outlined in the university's discipline code will be followed" is superfluous.

@Sumyrda it may seem superfluous but can be necessary to ensure the instructor has room to act.

@Sumyrda No, it really isn't superfluous. Many instructors at my university handle suspected cheating cases "off the books", despite clear official procedures, and students know this. Including this text signals to the students that they should expect the instructor to strictly follow the rules.
