«STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES«

1. Obtain extra help from instructor whenever necessary.

2. Understand all the academic policies and requirements, student conduct codes, and student grievance
procedures of Elmira College as stated in the latest College Bulletin and Student Handbook.

3. Any work submitted by a student must represent original work produced by that student. Any source used by a
student must be documented through references and citations, and the extent to which any sources have been
used must be apparent to the reader. The college further considers resubmission of a work produced for one
course in a subsequent course or the submission of work done partially or entirely by another to be academic
dishonesty.

4. Recognize that plagiarism is a serious breach of academic conduct and is not acceptable under any
circumstances. Students must reference all sources, including those from which an idea is paraphrased. Web
sites must be credited with their full URLs. Penalties for cheating or plagiarizing will be at the discretion of the
instructor and in accordance with Elmira College policies.

“Academic Honesty and Plagiarism : Students should carefully read the relevant section of the Code of Conduct which details
policies and procedures pertaining to academic dishonesty or plagiarism. In particular, Section II-B notes: “A grade of “F” may be
assigned for a course in which academic dishonesty has been substantiated, but an instructor may also assign a zero to the piece of work
or assignment or exam in question; the student may be asked to redo the assignment or retake an exam if the circumstances warrant.” In
addition, all instances of academic dishonesty will be reported to the Provost’s Office.”
The Provost Office is located on the first floor of McGraw, #107. The Provost is Dr. Patricia Ireland

The College’s policy on academic honesty is located in the student https://www.elmira.edu/student-code-of-conduct (it comes at the
very end of that document, pp. 45-48). This includes definitions of plagiarism and outlines
the procedures to be followed in the event academic dishonesty is suspected or determined. In
brief: individual faculty members are free to establish their own criteria (a warning, an F for the assignment, a re-do, an F for the
class) but are expected to report incidents of confirmed plagiarism to the Provost’s Office. Please review that policy if you have not
done so recently. It would be unwieldy to include the entire policy on a syllabus, but a reference to it should be included with a
statement of your policy. Below are two examples; you can find others by
raiding other syllabi on the EC Cloud and, well, copying them.

5. If at any time you are unsatisfied with the grade you have received on an assignment, you may file a
grade dispute. Grade disputes must be made within three days of the grade being posted; typed;
and submitted in hard copy with the original assignment attached (if applicable). You should specify
in your document because you believe a higher grade is warranted, citing course materials as
appropriate. I will review your proposal within 48 hours and notify you in writing of my decision.

6. Knowing that students often need to juggle school, family, work, extracurricular activities, and other
obligations, you need to know that Prof./Dr. Wolfe does not second-guess your priorities and does not think
less of any student who chooses to devote more time and effort to one of these other obligations rather than to
an assignment or the course as a whole. I respect the maturity of students who establish their priorities, make
difficult choices, and accept the consequences of those decisions. Do note that your grade is based solely on my
professional assessment of the quantity and quality of your work, not on your effort, situation, or on my
opinion of you as an individual.
