POLICY ON ACADEMIC HONESTY

When it comes to learning and understanding the general material covered in class, you may certainly use other reference and you may have discussions with other students in this class or other people from outside of this class. Similarly, you are free to have conversations and to use other materials regarding the general syntax and use of the Java language.

However, when it comes to work which is submitted for this course, all such work must be entirely your own. You are in no way to discuss such assignments, nor are you to use or or search for direct or indirect assistance from any outside references, including but not limited to:

The only exception to the above rule is that you are free to have consultations with the instructor, teaching assistant, or members of the organized tutoring centers on campus. Even in these cases, if you receive significant help you should make sure to document both the source of the help as well as the extent.

Any violations of the general Loyola policy or the policies outlined in this handout will be dealt with severely. Penalties will apply equally to a student who is aiding another student. Any such violations will result in a minimum penalty of a zero on the given assignment, and severe cases will result in a failing grade in the course. Furthermore all incidents will be reported in writing to both the department and the appropriate dean.
