Academic Honesty

All students shall do honestly all work assigned by their instructors, acquire credit of any kind by legitimate means only, and assist no one to obtain credit to which they are not fully entitled. Every faculty member will work to nurture an environment which fosters adherence to these standards, in part by ensuring fair testing and learning conditions for all students. For the purpose of assuring adherence to these standards, and of providing guidelines for alleged transgressions thereof, the various divisions of the university have adopted honor codes. When students and faculty fulfill their responsibilities under the honor code, they uphold the honor and integrity of the academic process.

The Howard-Tilton Memorial Library supports the Honor Code, and the Code of Student Conduct and will enforce them by reporting breaches of such codes to the appropriate authorities. Mutilation, defacing of library materials, theft and attempted theft, purposely hiding library materials, or inappropriate behavior in the library are examples of violations of the codes.

If you do not have a copy of the honor code of the division in which you are enrolled, you may request one at the Dean's office of that division.
