All students are expected to be responsible users of the computer systems used for this course.

All students are expected to pursue their academic careers with

honesty and integrity. Academic dishonesty includes, but is

not limited to, cheating on a test or other course work, plagiarism

(offering the work of another as one's own), and unauthorized

collaboration with another person. Students found guilty of

dishonesty in their academic pursuits are subject to penalties

that may include suspension from the university.

Any student found guilty of academic dishonesty will receive a zero

for that work (project, exam, homework, etc.) as well as having the

course grade lowered one full letter grade - in addition to any other

penalties assessed (suspension, expulsion, probation.)

Students are encouraged to discuss homework with classmates, but

are not allowed to copy the solutions of others or share solutions

with others. All work turned in for grading must be the student's own

work.

A public access course directory (web site) is used as a repository for all

course material. This directory will contain copies of any homework

assignments, course handouts, project/team information, notes, etc.

This will be discussed in the class.

Students are expected to obtain accounts on any university computers

needed for this class, and to be able to access the course repository,

and send and receive e-mail.
