Jacksonville University students are expected to adhere to the highest
standard of academic honesty. Academic misconduct is defined as follows:
Any form of cheating, including concealed notes during exams, copying or
allowing others to copy from an exam, students substituting for one another in
exams, submission of another person’s work for evaluation, preparing work for
another person’s submission, unauthorized collaboration on an assignment,
submission of the same or substantially similar work for two courses without the
permission of the professors. Plagiarism is a form of Academic Misconduct that
involves taking either direct quotes or slightly altered, paraphrased material
from a source without proper citations and thereby failing to credit the
