4 Course Policies ACADEMIC INTEGRITY The University considers academic dishonesty to be impermissible and subject to disciplinary actions. "Academic dishonesty is defined to include any form of cheating and/or plagiarism. Cheating includes, but is not limited to, such acts as stealing or altering testing instruments; falsifying the identity of persons for any academic purpose; offering, giving or receiving unauthorized assistance on an examination, quiz or other written or oral material in a course; or falsifying information on any type of academic record. Plagiarism is the presentation of written or oral material in a manner which conceals the true source of documentary material; or the presentation of materials which uses hypotheses, conclusions, evidence, data, or the like, in a way that the student appears to have done work which he/she did not, in fact, do. In cases involving academic dishonesty, a failing grade or a grade of zero (0) for either an assignment and/or a course may be administered. Students who are expelled or suspended for reasons of academic dishonesty are not admissible to other institutions within the University System of Maryland. Suspension or expulsion for academic dishonesty is noted on a student's academic transcript." (The Pathfinder, Frostburg State University) ATTENDANCE Your class attendance is very important to your success. You should make sure that you are in class every session. Students who must be absent from class should make every attempt to communicate directly with the instructor either prior to the absence or immediately thereafter as soon as possible to provide the reason for absence.
