Faculty Expectations
Faculty members are responsible for:
- Communicating academic integrity standards clearly.
- Preventing dishonesty through secure exams and clear assignment instructions.
- Handling suspected violations fairly and consistently.
Common Violations
Examples of academic integrity violations include:
- Plagiarism: Presenting someone else’s work as your own without proper citation.
- Cheating: Using unauthorized materials or assistance during exams.
- Unauthorized Collaboration: Working with others on assignments when not permitted.
- AI Misuse: Using AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT) to complete or modify assignments without permission.
Violations may result in penalties such as a failing grade, suspension, or even revocation of a degree.
Academic Integrity Procedures
If a violation is suspected, the instructor will gather information and notify the student. The student can meet with the instructor to discuss the matter. Depending on the severity, sanctions may range from a warning to more serious consequences for repeated offenses.
Appeals Process
Students may appeal any academic integrity violation. The Academic Integrity Committee will review the case, including any supporting documentation, and decide whether the violation occurred and if the sanction is appropriate.

Americans Disabilities Act (ADA)
The Americans Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) is the civil rights guarantee for persons with disabilities in the United States. It provides protection from discrimination for individuals on the basis of disability. The ADA extends civil rights protection for people with disabilities to employment in the public and private sectors, transportation, public accommodations, services provided by state and local government, and telecommunications.

Students are responsible for submitting all professional documentation outlining specific needs and requirements to the ADA Coordinator, Audri Mannon, audri.mannon@connorsstate.edu. This professional documentation must be established before any accommodations can be made by the instructor or by appropriate college personnel. Depending on the specific documented disability of the qualified student, course accommodations may include a wide variety of options. Any accommodations will be determined by campus personnel responsible for ADA accommodations in conjunction with the professionally documented disability of the student.
Services Available
Connors State College is committed to providing assistance to students that will facilitate their independence and academic progress. Students should utilize these services to support their academic goals. Reasonable accommodations are based on appropriate documentation and disability-related needs, and not desire. Students should be aware that services will be designed in a manner to remove barriers in the classroom that could hinder a student’s ability to learn. Services are not intended to give the student an unfair advantage over other students in the class. Each case will be viewed individually, and determinations made upon the documentation submitted and discussion with the student. When providing accommodation for disabilities, institutions of higher education are not required to lower academic standards or compromise the integrity of the school or program.
