Students are expected to be familiar with and abide by the Code of Academic Integrity in the Elmhurst College E-book. For example, intentionally obtaining or attempting to use unauthorized materials or information or unauthorized help from another person is considered cheating. The following comments are illustrative but not exhaustive.
"Tests test how well the student has learned. Therefore, unless the professor specifies otherwise, all examinations are to be completed by the student alone, without extraneous assistance of any kind. That means no help is to be given to or received from other persons during the test; no books, notes, calculators, or other materials of any kind are to be consulted; and if a calculator or other hand-held electronic device is permitted to be used for mathematical calculations, no other information may be programmed into or retrieved from the device. Whenever the professor permits an exception to any part of these rules, the exception applies only as far as specified by the professor. Such exceptions must be expressly permitted and cannot be presumed from prior exceptions on other tests."
