10. Academic Integrity
Plagiarism and cheating are attacks on the very foundation of academic life, and cannot be tolerated within universities. Section eight (8) of the Code defines academic dishonesty and provides information on potential sanctions for violators of academic integrity. The NCSU Academic Integrity statement can be found at http://www.ncsu.edu/provost/academic_policies/integrity/reg.htm
