Academic Integrity
We all have a responsibility to maintain a high standard of academic honesty, and I am confident that you will meeting the required standard of academic integrity. Any suspected violation of the Code of Student Conduct will be forwarded to the Committee on Academic Misconduct.
Academic misconduct is defined in the Code of the Student Conduct (3335-23-04,

misconduct." Cheating on examinations, submitting work of other students as your own,
or plagiarism in any form will result in penalties ranging from an "F" on an assignment to
expulsion from the University, depending on the seriousness of the offense.
We will follow the university policy in this course to maintain academic integrity, rather than to try to trap and
to punish. In fairness to all students in the class, violations of academic integrity will not be tolerated.
