AS&E Honesty Policy

The Honesty Policy in AS&E at University of Rochester can be found here.

Course Policy

Even though the exam is taken in a computer, you are not allowed to use the computer (as well as cellphones, calculators and other electronic devices) to anything else than to read the exam and upload your solutions. You are not allowed to use your notes nor the textbook while in a exam, but you can use them for the WeBWorK assignments. Any help concerning the problems in the exams or homework sets is forbidden and it will be treated the same as online forbidden resources (see below).

Department’s Policy

Any usage whatsoever of online solution sets or paid online resources (chegg.com or similar) is considered an academic honesty violation and will be reported to the Board on Academic Honesty. In particular, any assignment found to contain content which originated from such sources is subject to a minimum penalty of zero on the assignment and a full letter grade reduction at the end of the semester (e.g. a B would be reduced to a C). This applies even if the unauthorized content was obtained through indirect means (through a friend for instance) and/or the student is seemingly unaware that the content originated from such sources. If you have any questions about whether resources are acceptable, please check with your instructor.
