Regardless of writing skill level, one may always benefit from an intelligent discussion with knowledgeable peers. The Writing Center is located in Humanities 210. In the hour-long written portion of the Regents Exam, students are required to write an essay based on personal experience and to show a general understanding of current events. Students who do not pass the Regents Exam by the time they have completed 45 hours of coursework are automatically placed in classes that provide additional writing support. Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated in this class.
Academic dishonesty includes plagiarism, cheating, and fabrication.
All work you present in this class should be your own. When you consult outside sources, you must cite them according to MLA format. For details on the MLA format, consult your The St. Martin s Handbook. You may not present work that you have written for other classes unless you specifically get permission from me to do so ahead of time. Academic dishonesty will result in an immediate F for the course and an official report to the dean.
