Minors and MajorIndividually doneClosed-book, closed-notesNo early or late examination

Unless under very unusual circumstances, with letters of proofInstructor informed beforehand

EEL 851 11

Thou Shall Not CheatDo not cheatI encourage you to discuss your assignments with your friends

Put everything in your own wordsBut no copying

It is NOT a shame of not knowing how to doCopying causes damage to your integrity and respectCopying is stealing intellectual propertyTAs will catch cheaters

What if you are caught copying?Both the copier and the originator get 02nd time: Both get 0 and one full downgradeCaught 3rd time: FAILIf it is minor or major, an automatic FAIL

Email PolicyEmail is not effective to explain things. Please visit TA’s officesPlease do not expect answers right awayPlease do not send us codes for debugging

We would not debug codes for you
