STATEMENT OF ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
(Howard University Policy – from Howard University Handbook)

Howard University is a community of scholars composed of faculty and students both of whom must hold the pursuit of learning and search for truth in the highest regard. Such regard requires adherence to the goal of unquestionable integrity and honesty in the discharge of teaching and learning responsibilities. Such regard allows no place for academic dishonesty regardless of any seeming advantage or gain that might accrue from such dishonesty. To better assure the realization of this goal, any student enrolled for study at the University may be disciplined for academic infractions defined below:

1. Academic cheating – any intentional act(s) of dishonesty in the fulfillment of academic course or program requirements. This offense shall include (but is not limited to) utilization of the assistance of any additional individual(s), organization, document, or other aid not specifically and expressly authorized by the instructor or department involved.
(NOTE: This assumes that with the exception of authorized group assignments, all other assignments shall be completed only by the individual student, without any consultation or collaboration with any other individual, organization or aid).
