If any work is done jointly or if any part of an experiment or analysis is made by someone other than the writer, acknowledgment of this fact shall be made in the report submitted. It is dishonest to falsify or invent data. In writing examinations, the student shall respond entirely on the basis of his or her own capacity without any assistance except that authorized by the instructor. 1.9 Instructors' Responsibility. Instructors have the responsibility of insuring that students prepare assignments with academic integrity.
Instructors do all that is feasible to prevent plagiarism in term papers or other written work.
Instructors have the explicit duty to take action in cases of cheating or plagiarism. The instructor has the right to fail a student on the assignment on which the instructor has determined that a student has cheated. The circumstances of this failure will be reported to the student's academic dean. The student may appeal the matter to the instructor's dean, and the decision by the dean shall be expeditious and final. Either the instructor, the instructor's dean, or the student's dean may request action on an allegation of cheating or plagiarism by a student.
