Academic Dishonesty/Plagiarism In the learning environment, professional attitude begins in the classroom. For that reason, students and faculty will not tolerate or commit any form of academic dishonesty. Any form of deception in the completion of assigned work is considered a form of academic dishonesty. This includes, but is not limited to: •
Copying work from any source.
•
Assisting, or allowing another to assist you, to commit academic dishonesty.
•
Any attempt to share answers whether during a test or in the submittal of an assignment.
•
Any attempt to claim work, data or creative efforts of another as your own.
•
Resubmitting graded assignments for use in multiple classes (recycling your work).
•
Knowingly providing false information about your academic performance to the college.
•
To avoid plagiarism, do not "copy and paste" into assignments without using quotation marks and citing, in APA format, the source of the material.
Plagiarism •
Papers that you write in your program of study must follow the guidelines set by the American Psychological Association (APA). Using another’s intellectual creation without permission or without giving appropriate credit is the academic equivalent of theft.

When academic dishonesty is confirmed, the student will immediately be notified of the incident, which may result in one or more of the actions listed below: vi
