Academic Integrity The academic community is operated on the basis of honesty, integrity and fair play. It is the expectation that all students, as members of the college community, adhere to the highest levels of academic integrity. This means that • Students are responsible for submitting their own work. Student work must not be plagiarized. • Students must not work together on graded assignments without authorization from the instructor or get help from people, technological resources, textbooks, notes, etc. on examinations. Violations of academic principles such as cheating, plagiarism or other academic improprieties will be handled using the guidelines outlined in the Student Handbook. Disabilities and Special Needs If you have a disability for which you need accommodation, contact the Learning Center to request disability support services.
