About the College
A college of arts and sciences iscentral to the fulfillment of the

The College of Arts and Sciences of the University of Louisville isfounded on these traditionalprinciples, interwoven with thespecial role of an urban university.As the college which offers the
most comprehensiveundergraduate programs andselected graduate programs, theCollege of Arts and Sciences has anintegral role in the fulfillment of theUniversity mission by integratingurban-related courses within thefoundation of a liberal education.
The theoretical and practicalknowledge in the College’sbaccalaureate programs is
generally regarded as excellentpreparation for many careers thatdo not require professional oradvanced degrees and is theacademic foundation for moststudents who enter master’s anddoctoral graduate programs. TheCollege provides the liberal artsacademic base for students wholater attend the professionalschools. In addition to theundergraduate curriculum, most
departments in the College offerprograms leading to the master’sdegree and seven departmentsoffer doctoral degrees.
A university is expected to advancethe theories and application of knowledge. This expectation isfulfilled primarily by the creativeresearch of its faculty. Thiscreativity is related directly to therole of teacher, for it ensures that

program, the student choosesthree to five concentrations tocombine in a unified andinterrelated course of study.Concentrations are blocks of courses from undergraduate
departments or programs.
The first concentration must be aCollege of Arts and Sciencesapproved minor and a LiberalStudies student is required to fulfillall requirements of the minor. Thesecond concentration must also bea block of courses from adepartment or program within theCollege of Arts and Sciences. Thethird concentration may be drawn
from a department or disciplineoutside the College of Arts andSciences. Students identifyingMiddle Grades Education as theirgoal may substitute a state-approved “Teaching Field” for thedepartmental minor. If twoteaching fields are chosen, a thirdarea of concentration isunnecessary.

Statement of AcademicDiscipline
In accordance with The Code of Student Rights and Responsibilitiesacademic dishonesty is prohibited

at the University of Louisville.Although cheating and plagiarismhave never constituted a majorproblem, both faculty and studentsthought it important to expressclearly, in advance, the standards
to which the College adheres. TheStatement of Academic Disciplineprinted below is the result of theireffort and serves as the officialstatement for the College.
Questions which do arise arereviewed by a joint student-facultycommittee, which advises thestudent and faculty concerned.Rights of the student to review andappeal are scrupulously observed,
and minutes of all meetings areconfidential.
I. Introduction
As members of the academiccommunity, both students andfaculty are expected to recognizeand to uphold standards of intellectual integrity. The Collegeassumes as a minimum standard of conduct in academic matters thatthe student is honest; credit forcourses is given and received onthe assumption and condition thatall work submitted represents thestudent’s own efforts.
Unfortunately, cheating andplagiarism do occur. The pressurefor grades is often great, andopportunities for dishonesty exist.Nevertheless, both the ideals of scholarship and the need forpractices which are fair to allstudents demand that all dishonestwork be rejected as a basis foracademic credit. The definitionsand guidelines given below areintended to clarify the standards bywhich academic work is to bemeasured.
II. Definitions
Cheating on examinations consistsof any of the following: 1)borrowing someone’s answers; 2)
providing answers to someone; 3)using unauthorized materialsduring the examinations.
Except when otherwise explicitlystated by the instructor,examination questions shallbecome public property after theyhave been given.
Plagiarism, in submitting individualwork for academic evaluation,
means simply to borrow someone’sideas without citing the source, andto use them as one’s own. It is aparticular type of cheating.Plagiarism in this sense is notlimited to the use of directquotations without citation; aparaphrase is indebted to theauthor’s ideas just as a directquotation is. Nor is plagiarismlimited to the use of publishedmaterials; borrowing from thewritten or oral work of otherswithout citation is equallydishonest. On the other hand, inevery area of learning there is abody of knowledge which belongsto the public domain. Guidance andexperience may be necessary inorder to distinguish where therequirement to cite a source nolonger applies. The instructor orperhaps a style manual may behelpful in resolving questions aboutwhat should be cited.
III. Guidelines for Instructors
Instructors have at least two rolesto play in maintaining properstandards of academic conduct: toassist their students in recognizing
Academic Unit Information College of Arts & Sciences
8/14/2019 Unit Information - College of Arts & Sciences
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit-information-college-of-arts-sciences 6/27
University of Louisville Undergraduate Catalog Summer 2009 – Spring 2010
the way in which general standardsapply in the context of a particularcourse or discipline, and to takepractical steps to prevent cheatingand detect it when it occurs.Specific guidelines, several of them
obvious, should be followed:
That instructors take the time toinform students of thestandards of conduct expectedof them with regard toassignments and examinations.
That practical measures betaken to minimize opportunitiesfor dishonesty; e.g., adequateproctoring, the use of alternateforms of an examination if seating is crowded.
The practice of giving identicalexaminations to differentclasses, whether separated intime by ten minutes or by asemester, invites cheating.When there are good reasonsfor such repetition, appropriatesecurity precautions should betaken.
The repeated assignment of the
same material for papers orhomework invites plagiarism.When assignments arerepeated, students should beinformed that the unauthorizedreliance on earlier papers isforbidden and that theinstructor has effective meansof detecting same.
That the instructor specify withregard to assignments thedegree to which students may
confer and cooperate inachieving answers.
The College does not operate onan honor system. If within aparticular class an instructorwishes to institute such asystem, the students should beclearly informed of theirresponsibilities.
IV. Guidelines for Students
Recognizing his/her responsibilityas a member of the academiccommunity, the student should
strive to maintain intrinsicallyhonest academic conduct. Thestudent must seek to avoid anyaction which would compromiseacademic integrity. To ensure boththe fact and the appearance of proper conduct, the student shouldfollow these basic guidelines:
During examinations, thestudent must be careful to donothing that can be construedas cheating. The student shallfollow carefully all directionsgiven by the instructor withregard to taking tests andcompleting assignments.
The instructor’s request to keeptest questions private shall behonored by the student.
If the student is aware of practices by the instructorwhich are conducive to
cheating, or of acts of cheatingby students, he/she may conveythis information either to anymember of the student-facultyreview committee (see section“V. Procedures”) or directly tothe instructor.
Learning the proper methods of documentation and scholarshipis also the student’sresponsibility. Such knowledgewill help avoid committing
plagiarism unwittingly.
V. Procedures
As evidence of the seriousness withwhich the College regards thesematters, a student-faculty reviewcommittee, the Committee onAcademic Discipline, has been
Academic Unit Information College of Arts & Sciences

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit-information-college-of-arts-sciences 7/27
University of Louisville Undergraduate Catalog Summer 2009 – Spring 2010
established to assist in dealing withviolators. The Committee onAcademic Discipline exists also toprotect the student’s right to a fairand impartial hearing. To ensure itseffectiveness, the faculty should
view it as the primary channelthrough which such problems canbe resolved. The faculty memberwho believes a problem of cheatingor plagiarism exists should firstconfront the student or studentsinvolved and attempt to resolve thematter. A report of the facts of thecase and any decision which wasmade should be sent by theprofessor to the Dean or thecommittee. During this initial
encounter the faculty membershould inform the student of his/her right to appeal anunfavorable decision to thecommittee. This committee iscomprised of three students,selected by a nominatingcommittee of the Student Council;three faculty members,representing the three divisions of the College, elected by the faculty;and the Dean of the College, exofficio. The committee shall selectits own chair. The committee canbe convened by notifying either theDean or the chair that there is acase.
Written statements shall be madeby both parties and made availableto both parties and the committeeprior to any oral testimony. Anyrefutations may be made in writingor orally at the hearing. Evidencenot submitted in the originalwritten statements will notnormally be accepted at the oralhearing.
All evidence in writing before thecommittee in a case shall beavailable to the principals. The
committee shall hear such cases ascome before it and allow thestudent to speak on his or her ownbehalf and to present evidence andwitnesses. Further, the burden of proof rests with the person making
the charge.
The committee is given theresponsibility of recommending thepenalties for the violator, and suchpenalties shall be commensuratewith both the nature and theseriousness of the case in question.
Typically, for the first offense of cheating or plagiarism, failure inthe course will be recommended;of course, the instructor retains
his/her right to assign the grade.Any subsequent offense may resultin a recommendation to the Deanto suspend or dismiss theindividual from the College. All finalactions taken by the Dean thatresult from committeerecommendations shall be enteredin the student’s record.
The committee may adoptadditional principles or proceduresas seem appropriate. Suchchanges, however, should bepresented to the faculty forapproval.
Any student who believes theprocessing or final disposition of acharge of academic dishonesty wasunfair may initiate a grievanceunder the Academic GrievanceProcedure as outlined in thiscatalog.
