Policy on Academic Dishonesty

From Student Handbook, pp. 16-17.
All scholastic dishonesty, especially within the context of a Christian college, is unacceptable. Scholastic dishonesty includes cheating on exams, turning in reports and term papers as one's own when they are not, lying, stealing exams and other work, allowing other students to copy one's work in order to meet a grade requirement for a course and plagiarism. Plagiarism is defined as passing off as one's own the ideas of another. Copying or summarizing another's ideas in written or oral report must be correctly attributed to the source. Any of these afore mentioned offenses warrant academic discipline. First offenders are subject to the discipline of the individual professor and are reported to the Vice President of Student Life. Offenses may be subject to review by the Student Appeals Committee and may be subject to severe penalties. Disciplinary measures may include: re-doing the work, automatic failure of the course, probation, suspension, and/or expulsion. (from pp. 16-17 of the 97-98 KCC Student Handbook)
