“Academic integrity is more than the absence of cheating; it is the commitment to the pursuit of truth, by consistent, honest measures.

It is an understanding that an education based on anything less than this commitment has little or no worth.

At the end of your two, four or six years of study, it is knowing that your efforts, methods, and pride in earning an honest degree can be neither questioned nor devalued.

For those who have honor, academic integrity is not a choice; it is the only choice, every time.”
