ACADEMIC HONESTY POLICY: Students at Santa Ana College are expected to be honest and forthright in their
academic endeavors. To falsify the results of one’s research, to steal the words or ideas of another, or to cheat on an
examination, corrupts the essential process by which knowledge is advanced. Academic dishonesty is seen as an
intentional act of fraud, in which a student seeks to claim credit for the work or efforts of another without authorization, or
uses unauthorized materials or fabricated information in any academic exercise. As institutions, we also consider academic
dishonesty to include forgery of academic documents, intentionally impeding or damaging the academic work of others,
assisting other students in acts of dishonesty or coercing students into acts of dishonesty.
