As is stated in the Student Handbook “Academic honesty is a cornerstone ofthe mission of the College. Unless it is otherwise stipulated, students may submit for evaluation only that work that is their own and that is submitted originally for a specific course.” Pleasemake yourself familiar with plagiarism as it is defined in the Student Handbook. Academicdishonesty can result in a grade of zero on an assignment or test, academic code probation,suspension, or expulsion from the college depending on the outcome of a judicial hearing.
In compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act, reasonable accommodation will be provided to studentswith documented disabilities on a case-by-case basis. Students must register with the Office ofAcademic Support Services and provide appropriate documentation to the College before any academic adjustment will be provided.Each of us makes decisions every day that affect the environment. Decisions as seemingly innocuous as what kind of food to eat or what type of transportation to use to major decisions concerning where to live, what kind of home to live in, and what livelihood to pursue. This course is designed to help students develop the background to understand the impact of these decisions. The hope is that students will use their knowledge and wisdom to make intelligent decisions that will lessen their impact on the environment.
