What is Academic Integrity?

The Guidelines for Academic Conduct from University of Saskatchewan Council give the following description of honest behaviour at the university:

Honesty and integrity are expected in class participation, examinations, assignments, patient care and other academic work.

• Perform your own work unless specifically instructed otherwise.
• Use your own work to complete assignments and exams.
• Cite the source when quoting or paraphrasing someone else's work.
• Follow examination rules.
• Be truthful on all university forms.
• Discuss with your professor if you are using the same material for assignments in two different courses.
• Discuss with your professor if you have any questions about whether sources require citation.
• Use the same standard of honesty with fellow students, lab instructors, teaching assistants, sessional instructors and administrative staff as you do with faculty.
