What Constitutes Scholastic Dishonesty?

Scholastic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, cheating, plagiarism, and collusion on an examination or an assignment being offered for credit. Each student is accountable for work submitted for credit, including group projects;

Cheating

• Copying another's test or assignment
• Communication with another during an exam or assignment (i.e. written, oral or otherwise)
• Giving or seeking aid from another when not permitted by the instructor
• Possessing or using unauthorized materials during the test
• Buying, using, stealing, transporting, or soliciting a test, draft of a test, or answer key

Plagiarism

• Using someone else's work in your assignment without appropriate acknowledgement
• Making slight variations in the language and then failing to give credit to the source

Collusion

• Without authorization, collaborating with another when preparing an assignment
