Policy on Academic Dishonesty: Any form of academic dishonesty such as cheating on tests, plagiarism, deliberate misrepresentation of fact, or interfering with the work of other students will result in dismissal from the course and a failing grade. In addition, a complaint will be lodged with the Academic Dean’s office. If you have any question concerning whether or not your behavior may be viewed as dishonest, you are responsible to ask your instructor.

Grades: Student grades for the course will reflect test performance, completion of assignments, and participation and performance in class.
