Academic Honesty
(excerpted from the 1999-2000 College Catalog)
|
|
1.
Students shall not plagiarize, which is defined as:
A.
stealing or passing off as one's own the ideas or words of another,
B. using a creative production without crediting the source.
The
following cases constitute plagiarism:
 |
paraphrasing published material without acknowledging
the source, |
|
making significant use of an idea or a particular
arrangement of ideas, e.g., outlines, |
|
writing a paper after consultation with persons who
provide suitable ideas and incorporating these ideas into the paper
without acknowledgment, |
|
submitting under one's own name term papers or other
reports which have been prepared by others. |
2.
Students shall not cheat, which is defined as:
-
using
notes, aids, or the help of other students on tests or exams in ways
other than those expressly permitted by the teacher,
-
misreporting
or altering the data in laboratory or research projects involving the
collection of data.
3.
Students shall not furnish materials or information in order to enable
another student to plagiarize or cheat.
Teachers
may deal with academic dishonesty in one or more of the following ways:
|
-
Assign
an appropriate academic penalty such as an oral reprimand (as in
cases where there is reasonable doubt that the student knew that
the action violated the standards of honesty); assign an
"F" on all or part of a particular paper, project, or
exam (for example where it was felt that it was a one-time
occurrence); or assign an "F" in the course (as in cases
where the dishonesty was serious, premeditated, or part of an
ongoing scheme).
-
Report
to the appropriate administrators, with notification of same to
the student(s), for disciplinary action by the College. Such
a report will be accompanied by supporting evidence and
documentation.
-

Student Conduct for additional information.
