Each member of the Nevada State College community is responsible for fostering an atmosphere imbued with dignity, respect, tolerance, appreciation of diversity and positive regard for all members of our collegiate community. A fundamental tenet of the college’s mission is to nurture a community atmosphere free from racism, religious intolerance, sexism, ageism, homophobia, harassment, discrimination against those with disabling conditions, or discrimination based upon an individual’s political views or beliefs. Within this context, all members of the college community are accountable for their own behavior and actions. The college will not tolerate behavior that violates or infringes upon the civil and statutory rights of any individual or group. As members of our Nevada State College community, each of us can feel free to express ourselves in ways that promote openness within a diverse society.
Plagiarism and Cheating
Plagiarism involves directly quoting, summarizing, or paraphrasing the work of others without specific indication of sources, or handing in work that is not the student's own. Cheating is the unauthorized giving or receiving of information in examinations or other exercises. The grade of "0" or "F" will be given for any assignment in which plagiarism or cheating is discovered. This grade will seriously affect the final grade in the course. Evidence of such dishonesty will be kept on file, and will not be returned to the student. Instructors have the responsibility to report such incidents to the Dean. Serious penalties may be imposed, depending on the nature of the incident.
Withdrawal from Course
NSC does NOT assign an automatic "W" or "Withdrawal" grade if you stop coming to class or handing in assignments. You will receive an "F" to connote you failed the course. It is your responsibility to officially drop the course by the drop date.
Use of Student Work
Assignments for this course may be used as evidence of candidate learning in national, regional, and state accreditation reports of Schools and Education programs. Names and other identifying elements of all assignments will be removed before being included in any report. Students who do not wish to have their work included for accreditation purposes must inform the instructor in writing by the end of late registration. Your participation and cooperation in the review of SOE programs is appreciated.
