        TO: ALL STUDENTS

        FROM : John Keating

        SUBJECT : Academic Honesty Policy

        As we start a new semester at City College, I would like to remind everyone of our commitment to academic honesty.

        Today, all students received a copy of our Academic Honesty Policy. I know everyone's mailbox can get very full at this time of year. However, this document is very important. It explains the rules that we expect all members of our academic community to follow. You are responsible for reading and understanding these rules. If you have any questions about the policy, please make an appointment to speak with your academic advisor.

        What is academic dishonesty?

        Often students can be unsure what we mean by academic dishonesty. The Academic Honesty Policy explains the types of behavior that are not allowed. Here are two examples of academic dishonesty:

        Cheating is breaking a rule to get a higher grade. Some examples of cheating include:

        Copying a classmate's answers during an exam.

        Looking at notes during an exam.

        Submitting homework that you borrowed from another student.

        Taking an exam for another student.

        Plagiarism is submitting the words or ideas of other people as your own work. Some examples of plagiarism include:

        Copying text from the Internet and submitting it as your own work.

        Copying text from a book, changing some of the words, and submitting it as your own work.

        Using another person's ideas and not giving that person credit.

        What happens if you are found guilty of academic dishonesty?

        If you are accused of academic dishonesty, the Student Honor Office will investigate your case. If you are found guilty of breaking the rules, the college will take disciplinary action. In serious cases, students can receive a failing grade. They may also be asked to leave school for good. For less serious cases, students could have to revise their work and receive a lower grade.

        Academic work can be difficult. At times, you may be tempted to use dishonesty to make the work easier. As you gather the knowledge and skills that will prepare you for your future career, remember this: It is our values that will help us achieve these goals. With every action, always remember to be honest, responsible and fair.

        Good luck with the new semester.
