It is the seminar member's responsibility to inform the instructor of problems, to notify the instructor of circumstances that may interfere with the member's completion of work, or otherwise to seek assistance in order to finish the course successfully. Problems should be addressed promptly. Academic dishonesty of any sort will not be tolerated in this course. Dishonest actions include plagiarism, cheating, sabotaging another member's work, and submitting work other than your own. It is the member's responsibility to understand what constitutes a dishonest act and to ask the instructor for advice when the member is not certain whether an act is appropriate.
Plagiarism is the borrowing of another's words and ideas without proper acknowledgment.
Any form of academic dishonesty in this course, whether intentional or not, will result in the offender's failure in the course.
