13 Academic Dishonesty Policies NSU academic dishonesty policies apply to students in RS courses. There is an academic integrity statement in all syllabi. Sample plagiarism policy in syllabus: “Cheating and other forms of academic dishonesty and misconduct run contrary to the purposes of higher education and will not be tolerated. Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism, copying answers or work done by another student (either on an exam or an assignment), allowing another student to copy from you, and using unauthorized materials during an exam. Northern State University's policy and procedures on cheating and academic dishonesty as outlined in the Northern State University Student Handbook apply to this course. The consequences for cheating and academic dishonesty in this class include receiving no or reduced credit for the assignment and failing the course. Students may also fail the course after receiving failing or reduced grades for affected assignments.” If a student is suspected of plagiarism or cheating, the instructor will start the process of an informal resolution. If the student contests the informal resolution, the case will go to the NSU Student Conduct Officer to begin the formal resolution. This follows the SD Board of Regents policy. See Academic Dishonesty policy 2-33.pdf (sdbor.edu) Informal Resolution forms: academic-misconduct-informal-21.pdf (northern.edu) and flow chart of Student Academic Misconduct process. 2016_0428MapPolicy2_33_StudentAcademicDishonesty.pdf (sdbor.edu) Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Statement The high school is responsible for providing any assistance needed by the student.
