Academic Integrity Policy The University Of Rochester

Academic integrity is something that is supposed to be honored by everyone, students and teachers, but who follows the rules when it comes to education anymore? Cheating is not supposed to happen, but since getting an education is what everyone does now, grades matter. Grades matter because when students have great grades, companies will be more likely to hire them, rather than if they have decent grades. So, people cheat so they can have a chance in life and stay on top of their education and their class. At Oklahoma State University (OSU) located in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and founded in 1890, there is an academic integrity policy that the student’s must apply by. This University is a research institution where students must do their own work and not cheat and the current campus enrollment is 21,046 undergraduates who must apply by the policy and OSU is in the Big 12 conference. Another university that has an academic integrity policy is the University of Rochester (UR) which is in Rochester, New York and is a private, nonsectarian, research university. UR was founded in the year 1850, has 11,060 students who must apply by its policy and is part of the University Athletic Association. Academic integrity is important because it keeps students humble and honest about what they know versus what they don’t know.
