Policy Concerning Honesty by Students
Academic Integrity
University Policy Concerning Honesty by Students Quoted from the
Student Code
A fundamental tenet of all educational institutions is academic
honesty; academic work depends upon respect for and acknowledgement of
the research and ideas of others. Misrepresenting someone elseÕs
work
as oneÕs own is a serious offense in any academic setting and it
will
not be condoned.
Academic misconduct includes, but is not limited to, providing or
receiving assistance in a manner not authorized by the instructor in
the creation of work to be submitted for academic evaluation (e.g.,
papers, projects, and examinations); any attempt to influence
improperly (e.g., bribery, threats) any member of the faculty, staff,
or administration of the University in any matter pertaining to
academics or research; presenting, as oneÕs own, the ideas or
words of
another for academic evaluation; doing unauthorized academic work for
which another person will receive credit or be evaluated; and
presenting the same or substantially the same papers or projects in two
or more courses without the explicit permission of the instructors
involved.
A student who knowingly assists another student in committing an act of
academic misconduct shall be equally accountable for the violation, and
shall be subject to the sanctions and other remedies described in The
Student Code.
Text: Finite Mathematics and Its Applications, Custom edition (based on
the ninth edition). Authors: Larry Goldstein, David Schneider, and
Martha Siegel. Publisher: Prentice-Hall
Content: In addition to a brief review of the algebra of systems of
linear equations, the course consists of introductions to these areas
of mathematics: the mathematics of finance, matrices, input-output
analysis, maximizing or minimizing linear functions of two or more
variables subject to linear inequality constraints, sophisticated
counting, and mathematical probability.
Calculators are required for
some of
the work
of the course. Our textbook has tutorials on using certain graphing
calculators
to carry out some of the tasks we deal with. But students should be
aware that they
and not
their
calculators are being examined during the various tests, and they
should not
rely on the calculator as a crutch. Please work hard to learn the
methods we
teach you.
