Adhering to the standards of Academic Integrity is an important way that members of the SCU community demonstrate their commitment to academic and personal excellence. Students should make sure they are clear about the standards for each class, since expectations for proper citation and the amount of collaboration allowed may vary by department, instructor, and assignment. When in doubt, ask your instructor.
