Classroom Policies• Wikipedia is not an acceptable resource for any project in this class. You
will receive no credit for any assignment that you use Wikipedia.• Plagiarism – If I discover a paper has been copied (especially from a
website) it will be tossed out without a grade.• Cheating – Anyone caught cheating on an exam receives an automatic
zero• Cell Phones – There are only two reasons a cell phone should be seen
during my lecture– You have placed it on my desk to record the lecture– You are taking a picture of the current PowerPoint on the screen.– Besides these two exceptions, phones should disappear until I finish speaking– If I see a phone out during a test – that phone is banned from class until the semester
ends
