| Honor Code Reference: | "'A Culture of Honesty' is the University of Georgia's policy about academic honesty. Every student who enrolls at the University agrees to be bound by the policy. This means that each student has a responsibility to read the policy [a copy is located at http://www.uga.edu/ovpi/honesty/main.html] and comply with it. It's no defense to a charge of academic dishonesty to say 'I didn't know that was prohibited.' Students must perform all of their academic work without plagiarizing, cheating, lying, tampering, stealing, receiving assistance from others (unless the faculty member authorizes that assistance) or using sources to assist in that work (without giving fair attribution).
