Academic Integrity

Any violation of academic integrity shall be viewed as a serious infraction of the Rules and Regulations of the Law School. Violations of academic integrity shall include, but are not limited to, dishonesty in the examination process and plagiarism in written work. Plagiarism is the representation of the langu age, ideas or format of another as one’s own in any writing submitted for academic purposes. Use of the work of another without proper attribution constitutes plagiarism whether or not the writer acts with intent to mislead or deceive. However, such intent, or the lack of it, may be considered in determining the proper sanction if a violation is established. The presumptive sanction for a deliberate act of plagiarism is suspension or dismissal from the Law School. Please ensure that you have read the Academic Integrity regulations (II.F). Students are responsible for compliance with these requirements. The regulations apply to all work submitted by a student for any course or school-related activity.
