Statement About Academic Integrity

Your Role in Preventing Academic Misconduct

Not only in this course, but in your entire university experience, you are expected to practice the highest standards of academic integrity.  Plagiarism, cheating, fabrication, and other forms of academic dishonesty are prohibited.  Plagiarism is using, borrowing, or stealing someone else’s words or ideas without giving credit to the source. This includes copying definitions and sentences from textbooks, periodicals, other student’s papers, the internet, or any other resource.  Cheating can take many forms, including the use of unauthorized materials, information, or study aids on assignments or tests.  It also includes collaborating with others on exercises not designated as group assignments.  Fabrication involves the intentional and unauthorized falsification or invention of any information or citation in an academic exercise.  Committing any of these or similar acts, or helping others to do so, will result in disciplinary sanctions.  For more information consult the sections on “Academic Misconduct” in Spectrum, the ETSU Student Handbook, and the ETSU Honor Code (below).

ETSU Honor Code

East Tennessee State University is committed to developing the intellect and moral character of its students. To that end, all instances of plagiarism, cheating, and other forms of academic misconduct shall be punished in accord with Tennessee Board of Regents Policy. Any knowledge of conduct of this nature should be reported to the proper authorities. Not reporting instances of academic misconduct represents a fundamental break with honor code policy, and although this offense is not punishable, reflects a callous disregard for yourself, your classmates, and your professors. Penalties for academic misconduct will vary with the seriousness of the offense and may include, but are not limited to: a grade of F on the work in question, a grade of F for the course, reprimand, probation, suspension, and expulsion. For a second academic misconduct offense, the penalty is permanent expulsion.
