Academic Dishonesty (Plagiarism and Cheating)

It is unacceptable to submit the work of another person as your own. If you quote, summarize, paraphrase, or use the ideas of another, you must accurately attribute that information. If you do not acknowledge the source, you are plagiarizing. Academic dishonesty also includes unauthorized collaboration on academic work; taking, acquiring, or using test materials without faculty permission; submitting the same assignment for multiple classes without instructor permission; taking an examination for another person and many other situations. If you are unsure whether you are plagiarizing or how to cite a source please ask an instructor or staff member for help.

In this course, the first offense of plagiarism and/or cheating will result in a score of zero on the assignment, quiz or test and reporting of the incident to college administration. Further plagiarism and/or cheating may result in a failure of the course and additional consequences determined by college administration.

E-mail Communications

Recognizing the value and efficiency of communication between faculty/staff and students through electronic mail Inver Hills Community College has designated e-mail as an official mode of communication. At the same time, email raises some issues concerning security and the identity of each individual in an email exchange. Therefore, students are asked to regularly check and utilize their university provided email address for this course. The instructor will only respond to mail from IHCC provided accounts.

ADA Statement

Reasonable accommodations that make sure that all materials, discussions, and activities that are part of this course are accessible will be provided students with physical, sensory, cognitive, systemic, and psychiatric disabilities.

Religious Accommodation Statement

Inver Hills Community College strongly supports the principles of free expression and respect for the diversity of beliefs, including religious observances, among our academic community. It is the policy of the college to provide reasonable accommodations for students when religious beliefs and/or observances conflict with classroom activities or course requirements. It is the responsibility of students to notify instructors of the need for accommodation at the beginning of the course or as soon as a situation arises. If a mutually agreed accommodation is not possible, students may initiate an appeal. The procedure for this appeal is the same as the Grade Appeal Policy described in the Catalog and on the IHCC website.

Instructors may submit alerts at any point in the semester for students who are struggling with assignments, test scores, participation, and/or attendance. Students who receive an alert (via email, phone and/or mail) are strongly encouraged to seek out campus resources to improve academic success.

These Early Alert emails will be sent to email addresses on record with Inver Hills, this is an official means of communication with students.
