Academic Misconduct
IUPUI has established general guidelines concerning student academic conduct. These guidelines respect the right of every student
to fully exercise their freedom to learn without interference. The university has established parameters of academic misconduct,
which include, but are not limited to, cheating, fabrication, plagiarism, interference, violation of course rules and facilitating
academic dishonesty. Failure to adhere to these policies may be grounds for receiving a failing grade for the ENTIRE course as well
