Academic Dishonesty
ACADEMIC DISHONESTY
Academic dishonesty is a breach of trust between a
student, one’s fellow students, or the instructor(s). By
registering for courses at ESF you acknowledge your
awareness of the ESF Code of Student Conduct
(http://www.esf.edu/students/handbook/StudentHB.05.p
df ), in particular academic dishonesty includes but is not
limited to plagiarism and cheating, and other forms of
academic misconduct. The Academic Integrity Handbook
contains further information and guidance
(http://www.esf.edu/students/integrity/). Infractions of
the academic integrity code may lead to academic
penalties as per the ESF Grading Policy
(http://www.esf.edu/provost/policies/documents/Gradin
gPolicy.11.12.2013.pdf).
Remember….
….these are the minimum components required
by the Grading Policy and the MTP. The syllabus
policy goes into effect next semester.
