To prepare for both oral reports and written work, I both expect and welcome your telephone calls at my office and at home to discuss possible topics and to arrange office appointments. Please plan to consult with me in advance of the due date for an assignment. All oral reports, reading notes, and written work are due on the date indicated on the syllabus. If you cannot finish an assignment on time, please contact me before class starts. No late research papers will be accepted, but I do give incompletes for good reasons.
Academic dishonesty is a crime.
If I suspect you of dishonest academic conduct, I will refer your case to the Vice-President for Student Affairs. You will be given an incomplete in the course until your case is resolved. Forms of academic dishonesty include collusion, fabrication, and plagiarism. Collusion is lending your work to another person to submit as his or her own. Plagiarism is passing off as your own work the words or ideas of another.
