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 cooperate on oral or written examinations or work together on
evaluated assignments without authorization.
