I want to avoid committing an act of academic dishonesty. What constitutes cheating and plagiarism?
The university and the MAHG program take matters of academic integrity seriously. Students, whether enrolled in the MAHG program or taking individual courses for credit, are expected to abide by the Academic Integrity Policy found in the Ashland University Graduate Catalog. Students accused of academic dishonesty may face failure on the assignment, the course, or dismissal from the program. You are STRONGLY encouraged to make yourself familiar with the correct procedures of citation and use of sources. The Graduate Writing Center offers many excellent resources on research, writing, citation, and use of sources. You may find additional information on citations and the proper use of sources at Purdue University OWL.
