Policy on Scholastic Dishonesty
The University defines academic dishonesty as cheating, plagiarism, unauthorized collaboration, falsifying academic records, and any act designed to avoid participating honestly in the learning process. Scholastic dishonesty also includes, but is not limited to, providing false or misleading information to receive a postponement or an extension on a test, quiz, or other assignment, and submission of essentially the same written assignment for two courses without the prior permission of the instructor. Students who violate University rules on scholastic dishonesty are subject to disciplinary penalties, including the possibility of failure in the course and/or dismissal from the University.
Make-up Policy: The Department of Advertising's policy is not to grant students an opportunity to make up tests or assignments due to absences. If Faculty members at their discretion decide to grant a student an opportunity to make up an assignment or a test, the Department's policy is to attach a penalty as a percentage of the grade for that make-up assignment. The penalty may vary at the discretion of the faculty member.
The Department supports its faculty members right to establish exceptions to this rule in their course syllabi as they may see fit, provided such exceptions do not violate University policy.
