Academic
Dishonesty:
The work you do for all assignments is expected to be your own effort. You
can share ideas with others, but your program or implementation must be your
own. Students observed cheating on tests or assignments will receive a grade
of zero. Names of persons involved in either of these activities will be turned
in to the department head for disciplinary action.
