Trinity University expects that all members of its academic community will act with hon esty and integrity in academic relationships and with consideration and concern for the academic community and its members. The academic integrity principle, broadly stated, means students have done or have prepared the work or research in or out of class that bears their names and that they give proper acknowledgment for the use of materials and sources. The policy on academic integrity has been developed to provide students and faculty with guidelines to determine what behaviors violate the academic in tegrity prin ciple and proce dures for dealing with behaviors alleged to be in violation of the academic integrity principle. These procedures guarantee due process to all members involved in cases of alleged viola tion of academic integrity and protect the rights of faculty and students involved in such cases. Details of the policy can be found in the Student Handbook .
