What Is Academic Integrity?

“The free exchange of ideas depends on

the participants' trust that they will be

given credit for their work.”

“The free exchange of ideas also

depends on the participants' trust that

others' work is their own and that it was

done and is being reported honestly”

Academic Misconduct

Academic Misconduct

The Code of Student Conduct identifies three areas of behavior that constitute academic misconduct:

○ Cheating is the giving, taking, or presenting of information or material by a student that unethically or fraudulently aids oneself or another person on any work which is to be considered in the determination of a grade.

○ Plagiarism is the use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another and the representation of the other’s work as their own.

○ Aiding and Abetting others to cheat or plagiarize is as detrimental to the scholarly community as engaging in the acts themselves.

CoSC, sec 8

Code of Student Conduct

8.4

“The act of submitting work for

evaluation or to meet a requirement is

regarded as assurance that the work is

the result of the student's own thought

and study, produced without assistance,

and stated in that student's own words,

except as quotation marks, references,

or footnotes acknowledge the use of

other sources.”

My Expectations

Attribution Anything that we borrow from another source requires some

type of citation.○ Paraphrase

○ Quotes

○ Yourself

Collaboration We will collaborate a great deal in class, but I expect all major

assignments (unless otherwise specified) to be completed by a single student.

Originality Even with citation, it is not enough to simply parrot what others

have said. I expect your ideas to be yours, and yours alone, no matter how crazy.

Sincere Effort Do your best. I will assume you are innocent until I have reason

to believe otherwise. Be diligent, be forthcoming.

But Have Your Own Ideas.
