Universities thrive on the free exchange of ideas. It has often been said that
“ideas are to a university what money is to a bank.”
As a result, scrupulous honesty is necessary in the exchange of
ideas and we must acknowledge the ideas we use of others. Academic
integrity is at the heart of the institution and closely tied to
its reputation. It is everyone’s responsibility and privilege
to develop new ideas and use others’ ideas with proper attribution.
For an education to be meaningful, it must be one obtained legitimately.
Learning to think critically and gaining skills is a continual process
and maintaining academic integrity on the journey is the hallmark
of a quality education.
