Appropriate Collaboration versus Cheating

In general you will find me to be easy-going, and I will treat you with the respect that you deserve as an adult. As part of that, I expect and trust that you will not cheat. You will face severe consequences if I find my trust and respect has been misplaced. Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Cheating on homework, quizzes or tests will result in a failing grade on the assignment or test, and usually further sanctions, possibly including a failing grade in the course or further sanctions through the university. Any collaboration on quizzes and tests given in class will be considered cheating.

However, please do collaborate on learning how to do the homework. After cooperating on learning how to do a problem, each student must do the problem themselves to turn it in. Copying homework, or turning in homework that you did not do yourself, is considered cheating.
