Academic Integrity The School of Communication is committed to the highest standards of academic excellence and ethical support. The School expects that the grades in this course will bear some reasonable relation to established university-wide practices with respect to both levels and distributions of grades. The School follows Policy T10.02 with respect to “Intellectual Honesty” and “Academic Discipline” (See <strong>SFU</strong> Calendar, General Regulations). These policies, procedures and guidelines will be assiduously upheld. They protect your rights, as well as those of the faculty. It is particularly important that you be aware of and avoid plagiarism, cheating on exams, submitting a paper to more than one professor, or submitting a paper authored by anyone other than yourself. Violations of this policy will result in a failing grade in the course, and be reported to the proper university office. If you have any doubts about any of these practices, you must confer with the professor or the teaching assistant. Disability Any students requesting academic accommodations based on a disability are required to contact the Centre for Students with Disabilities. For exam and other accommodations, students are responsible for contacting the Disabilities Services Officer to arrange their specific exam accommodations at the start of the semester. Then, prior to each exam, students are required to take an Examination Request Form to their instructor. http://www.sfu.ca/csd or 778-782-3112.
