In signing this form I declare that I understand what constitutes PLAGIARISM in this class. Specifically, I
agree that all work presented will be of my own and created solely by me, and that the consequences
associated with cheating and/or plagiarizing will be an automatic “F” (zero) on that assignment, as well
as disciplinary action in accordance with LHS’s Academic Integrity policy stated in the Student
Handbook. This includes any class assignments, tests, written homework or reports. Doing work for
others is considered cheating and will be treated in the same manner as turning in work that is stolen,
copied or plagiarized.
