Collaboration on an assignment may
sometimes be encouraged by your instructor.
 Inappropriate collaboration is working with
others on an assignment without teacher
authorization.
Unless I have specifically told you that
collaboration is allowed, consider it off limits.
I’m not interested in what you and a partner
know – I need to know what you (as an
individual student) are able to do.

EVERYTHING you complete in this course is
expected to be in your own words and coming
from your own thought processes.
I (as the instructor) expect to see individual
takes on your answers…especially if you are
completing an analysis assignment (which is
the majority of this curriculum)
 In short, I should NEVER see the same exact
answer from any two students in regards to
literary analysis.

Modern youth culture’s take on academic dishonesty
is becoming increasingly (and alarmingly) lax. I
know this, because I’ve seen student attitudes
toward cheating rapidly loosen in the past 8 years.

My job is to hold you responsible to the codes and ethics of
this campus, and I will do so at all costs necessary.
Academic integrity is a question of ethics and
character. Remember the acronym for MRHS and
live by it:
Merit
 Respect
 Honesty
 Success
