Academic Honor Code [Excerpt]

3.3.1 Academic Honor Code

[Updated June 1, 2007, changes approved by the Clerk and the Associate Academic Dean]

To foster responsibility, the College operates under an honor system. Faculty members and students shall insist upon high standards of honesty and integrity in their classes. Faculty members shall call the Honor Code to the attention of their students, and may require that the Honor Pledge, "I have been honest and have not observed any dishonesty," be written on all academic work and may refuse to extend credit for work on which it does not appear. . Academic honesty and integrity represent central elements of the liberal arts education at Guilford College. As scholars pursuing knowledge and truth, informed by the Quaker testimony on integrity, we seek a community where each member acts responsibly and honorably in all activities and at all times.
