The work you hand in must be strictly your own.
Plagiarism is included in this definition: claiming as yours work that is not your own;
i.e., not just copying from your classmates, but also copying from the Internet or other
sources without using appropriate references.
Make sure that you acknowledge in your assignments any help you have received from on-line sources,
classmates, tutors, friends, family members, etc.
If we suspect that you are not doing your own work, you will be asked to discuss the matter with faculty members.
If you cannot convince us that our suspicions are unwarranted, then your case will be referred to a disciplinary body; and you risk being expelled from the college.
Brooklyn College Policy on Academic Integrity
The faculty and administration of Brooklyn College support an
environment free from cheating and plagiarism. Each student is
responsible for being aware of what constitutes cheating and
plagiarism and for avoiding both. The complete text of the CUNY
Academic Integrity Policy and the Brooklyn College procedure for
implementing that policy can be found at this site:
http://www.brooklyn.cuny.edu/bc/policies.
If a faculty member suspects a violation of academic integrity and,
upon investigation, confirms that violation, or if the student admits
the violation, the faculty member MUST report the violation.
