Professionalism & Leadership
This is a large part of your grade this semester; 100 points out of around 400 possible points. Leadership in my class means being engaged in the course. It means your phone is tucked in your backpack everyday... it is never out in class unless you ask specifically. It means when you have learned something, you help others understand that concept too. It means you participate in class discussions, team activities and clean up to the best of your ability. Professionalism and leadership is taking this class seriously, showing up daily and doing your best work. On days that I notice you are not your best self, your grade will drop 5 points. These points can only be earned back after several days of exemplary leadership.
Work hard. Be present. Stay engaged. Lift others up. Have fun!

INSTRUCTIONAL POLICY ON ACADEMIC DISHONESTY:
Academic dishonesty includes cheating and plagiarism. Cheating is the unauthorized use of assistance with intent to deceive an instructor or any other individual responsible for evaluating a student’s work. Note the following examples:
· Submission of any materials not prepared by students but presented as their own.
· The unauthorized possession and/or use of notes, books, calculators/ cell phones or the soliciting of assistance from another student during an examination.
· Illegitimate possession or disposition of examination or test materials and/or answer keys to tests and examinations.
Plagiarism refers to the use of another person’s work without giving proper credit to that person. A student must give proper credit through the use of appropriate
citation format when (a) copying verbatim another person’s work (i.e., words, phrases, sentences, or entire passages); (b)
paraphrasing another person’s work (i.e., borrowing but rewording that person’s facts, opinions, or ideas); and (c) summarizing another’s work (i.e., use of one’s own
words to condense longer passages into a sentence or two).
CONSEQUENCES OF ACADEMIC DISHONESTY:
When dishonesty is evident, the following minimum sanctions will be applied:
First offense: The student will receive an “F” or “Zero” as the grade for the assignment.
Second offense: The student may receive an “F” for the course and may be expelled from the class.
Third offense: The student will receive an “F” for the course and may be expelled from the college.
