Academic Honesty:
The following is quoted from the Triton College Faculty Handbook.
“Academic achievement is built on personal commitment, honest work, and academic development. The Triton College Faculty promote and expect these qualities in their students. Personal commitment belongs to the student; without it, achievement is improbable. Academic development flows from the teaching and learning process; faculty and students contribute to this equally.
Underlying achievement, however, is the need for honest, independent work from the student. Cheating, in all its forms, is unacceptable. Examples include copying someone else’s work or answers, using materials hidden on one’s person, obtaining and using tests and answers in an unauthorized fashion, and appearing for a test in the place of someone else. These and other such fraudulent acts violate the basic expectations of the college.
On another level, dishonesty is less simple to define, explain, or discover, but equally as serious. Plagiarism is understood as presenting someone else’s words, data, work, and ideas as one’s own. It is important to remember that the rule applies not only to the actual material of the original author but to the structure of its ideas and to those ideas themselves, even in paraphrase.
When using such material, a student must always identify the source clearly and acknowledge the fact that the material is borrowed. Simply copying such material is not sufficient
proof of academic development and achievement on the part of the student. Independent work is expected.
The consequences of a violation of the expectations of academic honesty begin with the instructor concerned.…”
