Academic Honesty

Academic honesty is accepted as the cornerstone of the development and acquisition of knowledge. Since knowledge is cumulative, further advances are predicated on the contributions of others.

​

In the normal course of scholarship these contributions are apprehended, critically evaluated, and utilized as a foundation for further inquiry. Academic honesty demands that the contribution of others be acknowledged. To do less is to cheat. To claim contributions and ideas of another as one’s own is to deprive oneself the opportunity and challenge to learn and to participate in the scholarly process of acquisition and development of knowledge.

​

It is a requirement that all enrolled students adhere to academic honesty in scholarship. The control of intellectual dishonesty begins with each individual’s recognition of the standards of honesty expected and then his/her compliance with these expectations.
