The required reading for the course consists of a small set of selected short readings on reserve. The Honor Code, embodying the ideals of academic honesty, integrity, and responsible citizenship, has for over one hundred years governed the performance of all academic work and student conduct at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Acceptance by a student of enrollment in the University presupposes a commitment to the principles embodied in this code and a respect for this most significant University tradition. If you have any questions about your responsibility under the honor code, please bring them to me, as the instructor in this class, or consult with someone in either the Office of the Student Attorney General or the Office of the Dean of Students. Your participation in this course comes with my expectation that your work will be completed in full observance of the Honor Code.
All examinations are to be taken without the assistance of books, notes, or other people.
In writing a paper, it is important to give citations for ideas that are not your own, whether or not those ideas are written down. For instance, if you have discussed the content of the paper with a classmate or friend and use his or her ideas in writing the paper, then you must properly cite that person. If you are not clear about any of these matters, please check with the instructor. Writing Policy Effective writing is encouraged and expected by the faculty of the General College and the College of Arts and Sciences. Instructors should help students realize the integral relationship between thinking clearly and writing clearly.
