Facilitating Academic Dishonesty

Facilitating Academic Dishonesty

At Penn State, students may not help someone else violate academic integrity policies. 

This could involve:

  • Permitting another student to get ideas from you or copy your answers or assignment
  • Letting another student use your completed course work to get ideas or answers
  • Doing coursework for another student 

And don't get your friend or classmate in trouble:

  • Don't ask anyone to put your name on group work you didn't do
  • Don't ask anyone to mark your attendance in class when you aren't there
  • The severity of the consequences for an academic integrity violation may increase if the violation affects or includes other students.
