University Policies

The University of Florida Honor Code, signed by all students upon registration, states: We, the members of the University of Florida community, pledge to hold ourselves and our peers to the highest standards of honesty and integrity. “In adopting this Honor Code, the students of the University of Florida recognize that academic honesty and integrity are fundamental values of the University community. Students who enroll at the University commit to holding themselves and their peers to the high standard of honor required by the Honor Code. Any individual who becomes aware of a violation of the Honor Code is bound by honor to take corrective action.” (Student Handbook). In this course, students are expected and encouraged to work together. Plagiarism of written sources without proper citation is of course forbidden.

Students with disabilities are entitled to classroom accommodation. Please register with the Dean of Students Office in Peabody hall, who will provide documentation that the student will then provide to the Instructor when requesting accommodation.

The University of Florida has excellent counseling services available on campus for students having personal problems or needing help in defining career and academic goals pursuant to good academic performance. These resources include:

  • University Counseling Center, 301 Peabody Hall, 392-1575, personal and career counseling
  • Student Mental Health, Student Health Care Center, 392-1171, personal counseling
  • Sexual Assault Recovery Services (SARS), Student Health Care Center, 392-1161, sexual counseling
  • Career Resources Center, Reitz Union, 392-1601, career development assistance and counseling

Software Use: All faculty, staff and students of the University are required to obey the laws and legal agreements governing software use. Failure to do so can lead to monetary damages and/or criminal penalties for the individual violator. Because such violations are also against University policies and rules, disciplinary action will be taken as appropriate.
