Attendance and Participation

Punctual attendance is expected of all students. Also, students should miss a

class only if absolutely necessary; i.e., they should not feel they are entitled to a
certain number of missed classes. It is also further expected that students will
be adequately prepared for all classes and they will participate in them when
appropriate.

Academic Offenses

The students and faculty are jointly responsible for the academic standards and
reputation of the university. It is well recognized that intellectual honesty is the
basic requirement for development and acquisition of knowledge. Intellectual
honesty is a pre-requisite for continued membership in the university
community.
Forms of intellectual dishonesty are plagiarism, cheating in examinations, aiding
and abetting cheating, and the use of assignment prepared by others,
impersonation of another student at an examination, misrepresentation of
information, falsification of academic records, and unruly behavior with
instructor.

If a student is detected by the instructor in committing academic

offense, it may result in an F grade for the course or even dismissal
of the student from the university.
