Policies
At the start of every semester, faculty members are responsible for explaining to their students the implications for each course of the Statement of Intellectual Responsibility. It may also be prudent to explain this policy in the course syllabus and/or the course Website. Further information about the College's policies and services can be found on the Academic Honesty Web page.
