Honour Statement To Be Submitted With Each Written Assignment In English 111-112 And In All Literature Courses


 

At CVCC we take the honor code seriously as part of a culture of integrity and honesty.  You are here to learn, not to garner grades and degrees dishonestly.  In that spirit, please read and sign this honor statement and place it at the beginning of each essay you compose as a separate cover sheet.
·      I have read any assigned text(s) in its (their) entirety prior to composing this written assignment about those texts.
·      I have written the assigned work myself and acknowledged all outside sources, whether summarized, quoted, or paraphrased, by using MLA style citations.
·      I have not submitted this work for another course either current or in the past without explicit written permission by both instructors (multiple submissions).
·      I have neither used anyone else’s work nor allowed them to use mine whether answers on a quiz, exam, or test or materials in an essay or any other assignment. 
·      I have not purchased my essay from a contract site or another writer.
·      In short, I am aware that turning in a written assignment I have not written--in whole or part--or composing an assignment about a text I have not read constitutes academic dishonesty (cheating).
·      I recognize that it is my responsibility to report any known violations of the honor code, whether my own or someone else's.
