YOUR ENROLLMENT STATUS MAY BE
AT RISK!

Academic Dishonesty in any form will not be tolerated!!!

The University of Central Florida has recently started an account with
turnitin.com., an automated system which instructors can use to quickly
and easily compare each student's report to billions of web sites, as well
as an enormous database of student papers that grows with each submission.
After submission of the paper, instructors receive a report that states if
and how another author's work was used.

Violations of student academic behavior standards are outlined in The
Golden Rule, the University of Central Florida's Student Handbook. See
http://www.ucf.edu/goldenrule/ for further details.

1. Cheating whereby non-permissible written, visual or oral assistance
including that obtained from another student is utilized on examinations,
course assignments or projects. The unauthorized possession or use of
examination or course related material shall also constitute cheating.

2. Plagiarism whereby another's work is deliberately used or appropriated
without any indication of the source. Thereby attempting to convey the
impression that such work is the student's own. Any student failing to
properly credit ideas or materials taken from another has plagiarized.

3. A student who has assisted another in any of the aforementioned breach
of standards shall be considered equally culpable.
