Academic honesty
(standard university wording): Academic dishonesty includes cheating, plagiarism and all forms of misrepresentation in academic work, and is unacceptable at The University of Maine. As stated in the University of Maine’s online undergraduate Student Handbook, plagiarism (the submission of another’s work without appropriate attribution) and cheating are violations of The University of Maine Student Conduct Code. An instructor who has probable cause or reason to believe a student has cheated may act upon such evidence, and should report the case to the supervising faculty member or the Department Chair for appropriate action.
Disabilities
(standard university wording): If you have a disability for which you may be requesting an accommodation, please contact Ann Smith, Director of Disabilities Services, 121 East Annex, 581-2319, as early as possible in the term.
Special circumstances
(standard university wording): In the event of an extended disruption of normal classroom activities, the format for this course may be modiļ¬ed to enable its completion within its programmed time frame. In that event, you will be provided an addendum to the syllabus that will supersede this version.
