Academic Integrity in CSC 214

• I understand that, unless otherwise specified, all the work I submit in CSC 214 is to be my own effort. This includes design, implementation, testing, debugging, and whatever other skills the assignment calls for.
• I understand that help I receive from any source other than CSC 214 instructors and TA's will be limited to simple questions about C++ syntax and semantics.
• I understand that, when working with a study group or tutor, discussions will be limited to review of lecture materials and exam preparation.
• I understand that programs presented on line or in lectures for the current semester of CSC 214 are intended to be used to solve homework problems. I will use appropriate comments to indentify parts of my programs obtained from these and other sources (see examples in the web version of this document). Failure to do so will result in charges of plagiarism.
• I understand that I am fully responsible for any work I submit electronically or on paper. When I submit work I am certifying that it is my own (except where clearly documented otherwise) and that I understand its contents (including those parts that are not mine).
• I agree to take reasonable precautions to prevent the use of my work by other students. These precautions include use of fs commands to restrict access to my files, keeping diskettes in my possession at all times, and disposing of program listings privately. Failure to take these precautions will result in charges of "aiding and abetting cheating or plagiarism".
• I understand that any evidence of any academic misconduct will result in that student being confronted by a CSC 214 instructor and a report of the incident will be forwarded to the Office of Student Conduct.
• I understand that if I am confronted and plead guilty to academic misconduct in a meeting with an instructor, the incident will still be reported to the Office of Student Conduct. Depending on the seriousness of the offense, it may result in a hearing before the Academic Integrity Review Board, which may recommend suspension or expulsion from the University.
• I understand that committing academic misconduct in CSC 214, even if it does not result in a hearing, will result in Academic Integrity Probation for the remainder of my academic career and the loss of points equivalent to at least one and a half homework assignments in my CSC 214 grade.
