Moral discernment Moral discernment may be interpreted to include judgment in ambiguous situations, academic integrity, ethical reasoning, ethical behavior, and the ability to act upon reflectively-held convictions. These broad learning outcomes are achieved, not in the abstract, but in and through the exercise and development of certain specific practical competencies that are infused in these four outcomes of general education. • Communicating effectively in writing in a variety of modes and settings • Communicating effectively orally in a variety of modes and settings • Analyzing observed natural phenomena through the use of scientific reasoning • Reasoning quantitatively • Integrating coherently diverse perspectives with knowledge • Acting perceptively and responsibly in light of the education one has received As required by the University’s accrediting body, general education programs at Mercer will constitute a minimum of 30 semester hours to include credit hours in humanities/ fine arts, social/ behavioral science, and science/mathematics. Academic Honesty Mutual trust is a basic component of any community. Mercer University expects students, as members of the academic community, to take seriously their positions in that community. Students are expected to ensure the continuance of trust among themselves and between them and the faculty by accepting responsibility for their own work. The University considers breaches of this trust and responsibility to be serious offenses. Academic offenses include the taking of credit for or unfair use of work that has been done by another person. This includes plagiarism, cheating, and other acts of dishonesty in academic areas. Plagiarism is defined as the use of ideas, facts, phrases, quotations, reproductions, or additional information, such as charts or maps, from any source without giving proper credit to the original author. Failure to reference any such material used is both ethically and legally improper. Cheating includes the use of textbooks, notes, or other reference materials on a test, daily quiz, or other examination when not specifically permitted by the professor; copying ideas or facts from another student’s paper during a test, quiz, or other examination; giving or receiving ideas orally or in writing during a test, quiz, or other examination; obtaining test questions that the professor has not released for reference prior to the test; and obtaining or giving specific information that appears on a test before the test is administered.

Course Load A full-time load for a regular undergraduate student is 12 semester hours of credit per semester. With a grade point average of 3.0 or higher in the previous semester, a student may enroll for more than 17, but not more than 20, semester hours in the following semester. However, the 3.0 average must be maintained if the student desires to retain this privilege during the succeeding semester.
