Students will be expected to know the conventions of writing and be able to express their ideas in clear, correct written language in proper essay form. If you fail to complete any factor of the assignments, you will not receive a grade higher than a C for the course no matter what grade you receive on the other factors. Students who fail to apply MLA documentation will receive a failing grade on their essays. New Hampshire College requires all students to adhere to high standards of integrity in their academic work. Activities such as plagiarism and cheating are not acceptable and will not be condoned by the college.
Students involved in such activities are subject to serious disciplinary action.
Plagiarism is defined as the use, whether by paraphrase or direct quotation, of the published or unpublished work of another person without full and clear acknowledgment. Cheating includes the giving or receiving of unauthorized assistance on quizzes, examinations, or written assignments from any source not approved by the instructor. Refer to the college catalog for details on the disciplinary procedures. Extended absences from class for more than five consecutive days without the instructor s prior approval will be considered as a voluntary withdrawal from the course. At the beginning of each term, or as soon as you become aware of a disability, we encourage you to request assistance that may be available which you need to meet your academic goals.
