As a matter of procedure, if you are writing a report, and you copy word for word from a publica tion, you should place the quotation inside quote marks and reference the author in an end note, footnote or adjacent to the quotation. Paraphrased material need not be inside quote marks, but you must give credit to the source either in the text or as an endnote or footnote. If you omit giving credit, this is usually considered plagiarism, which is a serious offense and a violation of the college s academic honesty rules. No credit will be allowed for any assignments after the beginning of final exams other than the final project that replaces the final exam. Reasonable lateness will be excused if the student has a written medical excuse or written administra tive excuse.
Exams are open book.
Students are not allowed receive written or oral assistance or communication from others during the examina tion. A missed exam will be counted as zero unless made up. An example of an administrative excuse would be absence by an athletic team member participating in a team event. Students are allowed to seek advice and help from others concerning this project. However, students should actually accomplish the work themselves, and key in all their own code.
