Read Babbie 18. Thus academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Student-teacher relationships are built on trust. Acts that violate this trust undermine the educational process. The Rensselaer Handbook defines various forms of academic dishonesty and the procedures for responding to them.
All forms are violations of the trust between students and teachers.
Please familiarize yourselves with this portion of the Rensselaer Handbook and note that the penalties for plagiarism and other forms of cheating can be quite harsh. Other forms of collaborative work, such as studying or discussing course material with class members and, of course, group work are highly encouraged.
