Inviting one and all to the ReTHINK INDIA - MIS Academic Integrity Compact 2021-22
Self-Reliance with Integrity :: Commemorating the Vigilance Awareness Week 2021, 26th October - 1st November
Madam Meeta Sharma, Hon’ble Principle of Mussoorie International School opines that Academic Integrity constitutes the foundation of Life-Long Pro-Active Integrity in Professional Life.
The Chief Vigilance Commissioner of India, Sir Suresh N. Patel could not agree more with Madam Sharma (whose School Campus shares its boundary with the fabled Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration LBSNAA) as the apex body - Central Vigilance Commission - headed by him commemorates every year a Vigilance Awareness Week which aims at raising awareness about Integrity as an antidote to Corruption in Public Offices.
This Year’s Vigilance Awareness Week is centered around the theme of Self-Reliance with Integrity.
To mark this seminal occasion, ReTHINK INDIA has thereby chosen to create a Nation Wide Academic Integrity Compact, the contours of which shall be unveiled during the Academic Integrity Compact Conclave 2021 on November 1st, from 3 pm onwards on https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIqde-uqzoqGNab9d9beTj9jISdF7aQq3Kk.
The essence of the 40 Pager Academic Integrity Policy and Practices in Action at Mussoorie International School have been abstracted into a smart & enforceable technological deck by ReTHINK INDIA, which would have to be digitally signed off by the various stakeholders - Management, Faculty, Students and their Parents - to be a part of this Academic Integrity Compact and enforced upon in practice for the whole year ahead.
Interested Academic Institutions (Schools as well as Higher Educational Institutions), may register for the aforesaid Academic Integrity Compact Conclave 2021 to receive the link for the application to the aforesaid deck.
While the Central Vigilance Commission is mandated to act upon complaints of corruption in Public Offices, the Academic Integrity Compact intends to be a pro-active mechanism in bolstering all-round Integrity in our National Life, which is so very important for our National Self-Reliance across frontiers.
