Academic Offenses
Students are expected to know what constitutes academic integrity, to avoid
committing academic offenses, and to take responsibility for their actions.
Students who are unsure whether an action constitutes an offense, or who need
help in learning how to avoid offenses (i.e. plagiarism, cheating) or about
rules for group work / collaboration should seek guidance from the course
instructor, teaching assistant, academic advisor, or the Undergraduate
Associate Dean. For information on categories of offenses and types of
penalties, students should refer to Policy #71, Student Academic Discipline,
http://www.adm.uwaterloo.ca/infosec/Policies/policy71.htm.
Students who feel that they have been wrongfully or unjustly penalized have
the right to grieve; refer to Policy #70, Student Grievance,
