Late papers will lose grade for each 2 late days. For example, students must trust that teachers have made appropriate decisions about the structure and content of the courses they teach. Teachers, must trust that the assignments, which students turn in are their own. Acts which violate this trust undermine the educational process. The Rensselaer Handbook defines various forms of academic dishonesty and procedures for responding to them.
All forms are violations of the trust between students and teachers.
Students should familiarize themselves with this portion of the Rensselaer Handbook and should note that the penalties for plagiarism and other forms of cheating can be quite harsh.
