Clark College Code of Student Conduct specifies that students may not cheat, steal, destroy property, threaten or abuse other people, or behave disruptively or obscenely. The instructor will determine if and when students are in violation of this code of conduct and may or may not provide the student a verbal warning prior to removing the student from class depending on the severity of the situation (as determined by the instructor). Students will NOT be allowed to return to the class until they have met with the appropriate Dean of Students and consequently satisfied any additional requirements placed upon the student by the instructor.
Cheating and Plagiarism or aiding cheating or plagiarism is not permitted. If a student is observed cheating or assisting someone else to cheat or plagiarize (or the instructor determines that cheating or plagiarism has occurred), the student will be given a zero grade for that assignment and the violation will be filed with the Dean of Students. If the student is observed cheating or plagiarizing a second time during the duration of their time at Clark College, they will be given an F grade for that course and the violation will be filed with the Dean of Students.
