Academic dishonesty and other actions in violation of the JCC Constitution of the Student Body or the Computer Science Academic Di
shonesty Policy will be addressed in accordance with these policies. Students are expected to obtain and read Appendix II - the STUDENT RIGHTS, RESPONSIBILTIES, REGULATIONS section of the
JCC Constitution of the Student Body.

Computer Science Academic Integity

The Computer Science faculty condemn any form of academic dishonesty. Improperly representing another person's work as your own (or allowing someone else to represent your work as his/her own) is construed as an act of academic dishonesty.

Examples of academic dishonesty may be found in the Constitution of the Student Body. Further examples include but are not limited to:

  • Copying all or part of a Web Page without using quotation marks
  • Obtaining a copy of another student's computer program, making modifications to variable names and submitting the program as your own
  • Not citing sources (including web pages) or falsifying sources
  • Purchasing a paper from another student or web paper mill
  • Obtaining a copy of an exam prior to the exam being given
  • Working with other students on a project that is not deemed a group project.

After appropriate review, if it has been determined that a student has been engaged in academic dishonesty, the student will receive at a minimum the penalty stated on the syllabus for that course.

Students are encouraged to review the following web sites, which provide examples of plagiarism and information on how to cite sources:
