Read your Student Handbook for University policies on plagiarism and other incidents of academic dishonesty. Any violation of the Academic Honesty Policy may result in failure of the course and can lead to expulsion from the University. Your understanding of the course material will also be evaluated in the form of a term paper. The topic and deadline will be announced shortly. Graduate students will also be responsible for a second paper on a topic which they find of particular interest.
