result in being marked as absent that day. NOTE: * 2 tardies = 1 absence!*

taken from your attendance grade for not participating in class.
15. Plagiarism and Academic Dishonesty
ACADEMIC HONESTY:
Wayland students are expected to conduct themselves according to the highest standards of academic
honesty. Academic misconduct for which a student is subject to penalty includes all forms of cheating,
such as possession of examinations or examination materials, forgery, or plagiarism. Disciplinary action
for academic misconduct is the responsibility of the faculty member assigned to the course. The faculty
member is charged with assessing the gravity of any case of academic dishonesty and with giving
sanctions to any student involved. The faculty member involved will file a record of the offense and the
punishment imposed with the dean of the division, campus dean, and the provost/academic vice
president. Any student who has been penalized for academic dishonesty has the right to appeal the
judgment or the penalty assessed.
Plagiarism
“Plagiarism — The attempt to represent the work of another, as it may relate to written or oral works,
computer-based work, mode of creative expression (i.e. music, media or the visual arts), as the product
of one's own thought, whether the other's work is published or unpublished, or simply the work of a
fellow student.
1. When a student submits oral or written work for credit that includes the words, ideas, or data of
others, the source of that information must be acknowledged through complete, accurate, and
specific references, and, if verbatim statements are included, through use of quotation marks as
well. By placing one’s name on work submitted for credit, the student certifies the originality of
all work not otherwise identified by appropriate acknowledgements. A student will avoid being
charged with plagiarism if there is an acknowledgement of indebtedness.”

in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any educational program or activity in the

Students shall have protection through orderly procedures against prejudices or capricious academic

evaluation procedures, or appropriate grading, may appeal the final grade given in the course by using the
student grade appeal process described in the Academic Catalog. Appeals may not be made for
advanced placement examinations or course bypass examinations. Appeals are limited to the final course
grade, which may be upheld, raised, or lowered at any stage of the appeal process. Any recommendation to
lower a course grade must be submitted through the Executive Vice President/Provost to the Faculty
Assembly Grade Appeals Committee for review and approval. The Faculty Assembly Grade Appeals
Committee may instruct that the course grade be upheld, raised, or lowered to a more proper evaluation.
