3. Student Conduct: Academic Integrity source: UP Bulletin 2015-2016 Academic integrity is openness and honesty in all scholarly endeavors. The University of Portland is a scholarly community dedicated to the discovery, investigation, and dissemination of truth, and to the development of the whole person. Membership in this community is a privilege, requiring each person to practice academic integrity at its highest level, while expecting and promoting the same in others. Breaches of academic integrity will not be tolerated and will be addressed by the community with all due gravity.

4. Think about… A situation where someone else lied or cheated and it impacted you. How did you feel? What did you do? ▫Example: You ask, “When is the final exam?” The professor lies to you about the date. How do you feel? Class Discussion

5. Violation Types (UP Bulletin) Cheating “Cheating is the violation of the letter or spirit of an academic endeavor in order to gain an advantage, put someone else at a disadvantage, or both.” (UP Bulletin) Forgery “Forgery refers to falsifying or inventing information, data, and citations.” (UP Bulletin) Plagiarism “Plagiarism is the use or representation of words or ideas of another without attribution, so that they appear to be one’s own.” (UP Bulletin) Source: Bulletin 2015– 2016, Office of Marketing and Communications, University of Portland, Portland Oregon.

6. Plagiarism If the idea is not yours, you need to cite it. Example: The bear can attach to the child’s shoe or belt and the caretaker keeps the parent pod (Author Name, 2015). Otherwise, describing this product in your paper is considered plagiarism. I will give you a warning on this one, but not including a citation violates the code of academic integrity. The above text is your own words, but the idea is coming from another source, so it needs to be cited. Penalties will result if I see plagiarized ideas, text, figures, and tables in the project proposal and design report. Better to be safe than sorry.

17. When faced with an ethical dilemma: Ask yourself these questions 1.What are the harms? 2.What are the promises (implicit and explicit contracts)? 3.What is fair? 4.How does the decision stand up to public scrutiny?

18. Case 1: My chemistry experiment blew up two hours into the lab session. I had to get to another class, so I copied the data from another group to include in my own lab report. After all, I did the experiment – I just did not have time to start over and collect the data myself. Answer the four questions ▫Harms, promises, fair, public scrutiny

19. Case 2: I am an engineer for an airplane manufacturer. My team completed the analysis to determine the appropriate size, density, and material for the bolts to secure the fuselage together. However, the supplier was back- ordered on the bolts and our stage of the project had to be implemented soon to keep the project on schedule and on budget. So, my manager chose to use bolts made from a different material to keep the project moving forward. Answer the four questions ▫Harms, promises, fair, public scrutiny

20. My advice Own your mistakes; do not make excuses Ethics is really about your personal accountability and your character What do you want to be known for?
