ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: Academic honesty is expected of all Clinton Community College students. It is academically dishonest, for example, to misrepresent another person’s work as one’s own, to take credit for someone else’s work or ideas, to accept help on a test, to obtain advanced information on confidential test materials, or to intentionally harm another student’s chances for academic success. XII. COURSE CONTINUITY PLAN: In the case that the college officially closes because of an emergency which causes a short term disruption of this course, we will utilize e-mail to continue this course in the short term (1-3 weeks). All students need to utilize their campus e-mail to receive course related information. revised 8/11
