Lone Star College -- Cy-Fair Campus and System Policies


Academic Integrity Lone Star College - Cy-Fair is committed to a high standard of academic integrity in the academic community. In becoming a part of the academic community, students are responsible for honesty and independent effort. Failure to uphold these standards includes, but is not limited to, the following: plagiarizing written work or projects, cheating on exams or assignments, collusion on an exam or project, and misrepresentation of credentials or prerequisites when registering for a course. Cheating includes looking at or copying from another student's exam, orally communicating or receiving answers during an exam, having another person take an exam or complete a project or assignment, using unauthorized notes, texts, or

other materials for an exam, and obtaining or distributing an unauthorized copy of an exam or any part of an exam. Plagiarism means passing off as his/her own the ideas or writings of another (that is, without giving proper credit by documenting sources). Plagiarism includes submitting a paper, report or project that someone else has prepared, in whole or in part. Collusion is inappropriately collaborating on assignments designed to be completed independently. These definitions are not exhaustive. When there is clear evidence of cheating, plagiarism, collusion or misrepresentation, disciplinary action may include but is not limited to: requiring you to retake or resubmit an exam or assignment, assigning a grade of zero or "F" for an exam or assignment; or assigning a grade of "F" for the course. Additional sanctions including being withdrawn from the course, program or expelled from school may be imposed on a student who violate the standards of academic integrity. Student Behavior Expectations Students are expected to conduct themselves appropriately while on College property. Students may receive disciplinary action up to and including suspension, if they violate System or College rules, disrupt classes or interfere with the opportunity of others to obtain an education. Students who pose a threat to the safety of others will be subject to immediate withdrawal from the classroom and/or campus environment as well as subsequent criminal charges, as appropriate. Please refer to the Student Code of Conduct located online at http://www.lonestar.edu/146126/ for additional information. Americans with Disabilities Act Statement Lone Star College - Cy-Fair is dedicated to providing the least restrictive environment for all students. We promote equity in academic access through the implementation of reasonable accommodations as required by the Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Title V, Section 504 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) which will enable students with disabilities to participate in and benefit from all post-secondary educational activities. If you require reasonable accommodations because of a physical, mental, or learning disability, please contact the Counseling Office to obtain the necessary information to request accommodations. Upon completion of this process, please notify your instructor as soon as possible and preferably before the end of the first two weeks of class to arrange for reasonable accommodations. Computer Virus Protection Computer viruses are, unfortunately, a fact of life. Using diskettes on more than one computer creates the possibility of infecting computers and diskettes with a computer virus. This exposes the computers of the college, your personal computer, and any others you may be using to potentially damaging viruses. The college has aggressive anti-virus procedures in place to protect its computers, but cannot guarantee that a virus might not temporarily infect one of its machines. It is your responsibility to protect all computers under your control and use and ensure that each diskette you use, whenever or wherever you use it, has been scanned with anti-virus software. Since new viruses arise continually, your anti-virus software must be kept current. And, since no anti-virus software will find every virus, keeping backup copies is extremely important. Equal Opportunity Statement It is the policy of the Lone Star College System to provide equal employment, admission and educational opportunities without regard to race, color, creed, national origin, gender, age, veteran's status, sexual orientation, or disability. Lone Star Colleges strive to provide an excellent learning environment free from harassment or intimidation directed at any persons race, color, creed, national origin, gender, age, veteran's status, sexual orientation, or disability. Any form of harassment will not be tolerated. Guaranteed Graduate Policy Lone Star College System guarantees that graduates of its Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, or Associate of Applied Science and all Certificate programs, providing under certain circumstances, additional education and training tuition free to students lacking appropriate mastery of specified competencies. For additional information, refer to the Lone Star catalog. Internet and E-mail The College System provides computing and network resources to students. You are encouraged to use the computers, software packages, and electronic mail (e-mail) for educational or System-related activities and to facilitate the efficient exchange of useful information. However, the equipment, software, and network capacities provided through the district computer services are and remain the property of the System. Use of the equipment and networks is to comport with the policies and procedures of the System and access may be denied to any student who fails to comply with the Systems policies and procedures regarding its use. Access to the Systems e-mail and similar electronic communications systems are a privilege and certain responsibilities accompany that privilege. All users are expected to demonstrate the same level of ethical and professional manner, as is required in face-to-face or written communications. Anonymous or forged messages will be treated as a violation of this policy.

Software Piracy Law strictly prohibits unauthorized copying of software purchased by Cy-Fair College for use in laboratories. Cy-Fair College administration will take appropriate disciplinary action against anyone violating copyright laws. Evaluation of Instruction Lone Star College - Cy-Fair is committed to student success. As part of its institutional effectiveness efforts, our instructors are assessed in several ways. Students are asked to provide input for each course they take each semester using the Student Feedback Questionnaire, which can be accessed online for each course. The college deans review these evaluations each semester. The deans, and/or department chairs may visit each instructors class at some time during the semester to observe the instructional environment being provided, and complete an assessment of the instructor. Final Examinations A final evaluation activity will occur during the published final evaluation period. The appropriate dean must approve any variation to this schedule. Withdrawal Policy Withdrawal from the course after the official day of record and prior to W Day, (see current catalog for this date) will result in a final grade of W on your transcript. Instructor approval is necessary if you want to withdraw after official day. No credit will be awarded for a course earning a W. If you stop attending class, you must withdraw at the registration office prior to W day. If you stop attending class and do not officially withdraw, you will receive an F for the course.
