Baylor Honor Code Plagiarism or any form of cheating involves a breach of student-teacher trust. This means that any work submitted under your name is expected to be your own, neither composed by anyone else as a whole or in part, nor handed over to another person for complete or partial revision. Be sure to document all ideas that are not your own. Instances of plagiarism or any other act of academic dishonesty will be reported to the Honor Council and may result in failure of the course. Not understanding plagiarism is not an excuse. You may use online resources to study for this course, but you must do so in ways that are consistent with all aspects of the Baylor
University Honor Code (see, specifically, Section III.C.12 and Section III.C.16). As a Baylor
student, I expect you to be intimately familiar with all aspects of the Honor Code, which can be
found at this link: http://www.baylor.edu/honorcode/.

Incomplete Grades An incomplete grade may be assigned at the discretion of the instructor as an interim grade for a course in which the student has: (a) completed a major portion of the course with a passing grade, (b) been unable to complete course requirements prior to the end of the term because of extenuating circumstances, and (c) obtained agreement from the instructor and arranged for resolution of the incomplete grade.
