Academic Code of Honor. Sec. IV.B
1. All work
submitted for credit, including exams, is accepted as a student's own work,
unless otherwise understood and approved by the instructor.
2. Students
may not, without proper citation and approval of the instructor, submit work
that has been copied, wholly or partially, from another student's paper, notebook,
or exam. Nor may students without proper citation submit work which has
been copied, wholly or partially, from a book, article, essay, newspaper,
the internet or any other written or printed or media source whether or not
the material in question is copyrighted.
3. Written
work that paraphrases any written or printed media material without acknowledgment
may not be submitted for credit. Ideas from books and essays may be
incorporated in students' work as starting points, governing issues, illustrations,
and the like, but in each case the source must be cited.
4. Any
on-line materials students use to gather information for a paper are also
governed by rules about plagiarism, so students
need to cite electronic sources as well as printed and other sources.
5. A student
may not turn in the same work for two or more different classes/courses he
or she is taking in an academic term unless each professor involved has authorized
students to do so in advance.
6. Students
may not submit for credit any work that has been used to fulfill the requirements
of another course previously taken at this or any other school without obtaining
permission of the current professor in advance.
7. Students
must be aware that honor code violations are not limited to the actions prohibited
in the guidelines above. Any kind of dishonesty related to academics is a
violation. Other examples of academic dishonesty, apart from giving or receiving
unauthorized aid as described by the instructor in each course, include but
are not limited to listing false reasons for taking a make-up examination,
falsifying data and failing to take responsible action as required in section
IV.D.
