Academic honesty is a cornerstone of the development and acquisition of knowledge.
Academic honesty is a condition of continued membership in the university community.
Scholarly integrity is required of all members of the University. The illustrations presented below are considered to be representative but not definitive nor exhaustive of activities which could be considered to constitute academic dishonesty. Scholarship quite properly rests upon examining and referring to the thoughts and writings of others. However, when excerpts are used in paragraphs or essays, the author must be acknowledged using an accepted format for the underlying discipline. Footnotes, endnotes, references and bibliographies must be complete.
