• Cheating: All work turned in is expected to be produced by the submittor. While discussing high level problems with classmates, tutors, and others is acceptable, the majority of the solution to the problem should be written by the submittor. If the instructors, in accordance with University rules, decide that students have cheated on an assignment or assignments, the student will be assigned grade of "F" for the class.
