5  knowingly furnishing false information to the college  forgery  alteration or misuse of college documents or records  dual submission The integrity of the academic program and degree rests on the principle that the grades awarded to students reflect only their own individual efforts and achievement(s). Students are required to perform the work specified by the instructor and are responsible for the content of work submitted, such as papers, reports, examinations, and other work. Violations of academic integrity include various types of plagiarism and cheating. Plagiarism (including self-plagiarism and dual submission): Plagiarism is presenting the written, published or creative work of another as the student’s own work. Whenever the student uses wording, arguments, data, design, etc., belonging to someone else in a paper, report, oral presentation, or other assignment, the student must make this fact explicitly clear by correctly citing the appropriate references or sources. The student must fully indicate the extent to which any part or parts of the project are attributed to others. The student must also provide citations for paraphrased materials. Plagiarism can result in failure of the course or suspension from the college. See the college’s policies for more information. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about these issues. Disabilities and Special Needs: In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, students with documented disabilities can pursue accommodations as needed. To assure that accommodations and or modifications will be available when classes start, students are encouraged to make request as soon as possible. Students, who require some modifications of seating, testing, or other course requirements, should contact the Dean of Students or academic adviser. Disclaimer: The instructor reserves the right to change these policies and the schedule of assignments as conditions and ongoing review of the course indicate would be appropriate.
