Students with Disabilities:
Saint Leo University is committed to a policy which provides an equal opportunity for full participation of
all qualified individuals with disabilities in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Appropriate
academic accommodations and services are coordinated through the Office of Disability Services.
Students with disabilities who require accommodation should contact the office as soon as possible via

Academic Honor Code:
The Academic Honor Code is published in its entirety in the Saint Leo University Catalog. The first
paragraph is quoted below:

Saint Leo University holds all students to the highest standards of honesty and personal integrity in
every phase of their academic life. All students have a responsibility to uphold the Academic Honor
Code by refraining from any form of academic misconduct, presenting only work that is genuinely
their own, and reporting any observed instance of academic dishonesty to a faculty member.

It is the responsibility of every member of the faculty and student body to cooperate in supporting the
Honor Code. Academic misconduct includes but is not limited to the following categories:

Cheating

 Providing or receiving academic work to or from another student without the permission of the
instructor/professor.

 Buying or selling academic work.

 Violating test conditions.

 Forging academic documents.

 Copying computer programs.

Plagiarism

 Stealing and passing off the ideas and words of another as one’s own or using the work of
another without crediting the source whether that source is authored by a professional or a
peer.

 Submitting an article or quoted material from a periodical or the internet as one’s own.

 Retyping or re-titling another student’s paper and handing it in as one’s own.

 Intentionally or unintentionally failing to cite a source.

Complicity

 Helping another student commit an act of academic dishonesty.

Misrepresentation

 Resubmitting previous work, in whole or in part, for a current assignment without the written
consent of the current instructor(s).

 Having another student complete one’s own assignments, quizzes, or exams.

 Lying to a professor.

 Fabricating a source.

Please refer to the Saint Leo University Academic Catalog for more information on the Honor Code and
procedures for adjudication.

Protection of the Academic Environment:
Disruption of academic process is the act or words of a student in a classroom or online environment
which in the reasonable estimation of a faculty member (a) directs attention away from the academic
matters at hand, such as distractions, persistent, disrespectful or abusive interruptions of academic
discussions, or (b) presents a danger to the health, safety or well-being of the faculty member or
students. Education is a cooperative endeavor, one that takes place within a context of basic
interpersonal respect. We must therefore make the learning environment conducive to the purpose for
which we are here. Disruption, intentional and unintentional, is an obstacle to that aim. We can all aid in
creating the proper environment, in small ways and in more fundamental ways. So, when we speak in
class, we can disagree without attacking each other and no one speaks in a manner or of off-topic
content that disrupts the class. Any violation of this policy may result in disciplinary action. Please refer to
the Student Handbook for further details.
