Accommodations for Students with Disabilities:
Students requesting classroom accommodation must first register with the Dean of Students Office. The Dean of Students Office will provide documentation to the student who must then provide this documentation to the Instructor when requesting accommodation.

General Education Learning Outcomes:
ENC 1101 (passed with a grade of D or better) satisfies the university's General Education Requirement for Composition (C). ENC 1101 also satisfies 6000 words (E6) of the University Writing Requirement. However, you must turn in all assigned papers and you must pass this course with a grade of C or better to receive the E6 credit.

Academic Honesty:
As a University of Florida student, your performance is governed by the UF Honor Code, available in its full form at http://www.reg.ufl.edu/01-02-catalog/student_life/. The Honor Code requires Florida students to neither give nor receive unauthorized aid in completing all assignments. Violations include cheating, plagiarism, bribery, multiple submissions, and misrepresentation, all defined in detail at http://www.dso.ufl.edu/judicial/honestybrochure.htm.

Plagiarism:
Plagiarism is a serious violation of the student academic honor code. You commit plagiarism when you present the ideas or words of someone else as your own. You commit plagiarism if you use (without crediting the source):

  • Any part of another person's essay, speech, or ideas.
  • Any part of an article in a magazine, journal, newspaper; any part of a book, encyclopedia, CD-ROM, online WWW page, etc.
  • Any idea from another person or writer, even if you express that idea in your own words.
Important tip: There should never be a time when you copy and paste something from the Internet and do not provide the exact location from which it came. All acts of willful plagiarism will result in failure of the assignment and will likely result in failure of the entire course.

Documenting Your Work:
Students are responsible for maintaining duplicate copies of all work submitted in this course and retaining all returned, graded work until the semester is over. Should the need arise for a re-submission of papers or a review of graded papers, it is the student's responsibility to have and make available this material.
