Academic Integrity:

At a Christian liberal arts university committed to the pursuit of truth and understanding, any act of academic dishonesty is especially distressing and cannot be tolerated. In general, academic dishonesty involves the abuse and misuse of information or people to gain an undeserved academic advantage or evaluation. The common forms of academic dishonesty include:

• Cheating – using deception in the taking of tests or the preparation of written work, using unauthorized materials, copying another person’s work with or without consent, or assisting another in such activities.
• Lying – falsifying, fabricating, or forging information in either written, spoken, or video presentations.
• Plagiarism — Using the published writings, data, interpretations, or ideas of another without proper documentation.

 Episodes of academic dishonesty are reported to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. The potential penalty for   academic dishonesty includes a failing grade on a particular assignment, a failing grade for the entire course, or charges   against the student with the appropriate disciplinary body.
