All students are responsible for maintaining the highest standards of 
honesty and integrity in every phase of their academic careers.  The
penalties for academic dishonesty are severe and ignorance is not an
acceptable defense.

Academic honesty means performing all academic work without plagiarizing,
cheating, lying, tampering, stealing, receiving assistance from any other
person or using any source of information that is not common knowledge.
