Americans with Disabilities Act

The University of Texas at Arlington is committed to the spirit and letter of
federal equal opportunity legislation. The Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) provides those with disabilities with the same opportunities as all
citizens.

If you require an accommodation based on disability, I would like to meet with
you in the privacy of my office, during the first week of the semester, to make
sure you are appropriately accommodated.

Academic Dishonesty:
All students are expected to pursue their scholastic careers with honesty and
integrity, and the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry will not tolerate
academic dishonesty in any form. “Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not
limited to cheating, the submission for credit of any work or materials that are
attributable in whole or in part to another person, taking an examination for
another person, any act designed to give unfair advantage to a student or
the attempt to commit such acts.”(Regents’ Rules and Regulations, Part
One, Chapter VI, Section 3, subsection 3.2, Subdivision 3.22)

Examples of academic dishonesty includes:
• exchanging answers or information during a test or quiz
• looking at another student’s paper during a test or quiz
• bringing notes in any form into the test or quiz, including written notes
(crib sheets), digitally stored information (including formulas, constants,
alpha-numeric material or text), or notes stored in any other medium
• looking at a book or other source during the quiz or test

During tests or quizzes, students are not allowed to use any hand-held
calculators or computers which possess the capability of storing alpha-
numeric or textual material. If the instructor allows the use of calculators on a
particular test, then students may only use scientific calculators which are
non-programmable. In addition, students are not allowed to have access to
digital pagers during any test or quiz. Students who violate University rules
on scholastic dishonesty are subject to disciplinary penalties, including the
possibility of failure in the course and dismissal from the University. Since
dishonesty harms the individual, all students, and the integrity of the
University, policies on scholastic dishonesty will be strictly enforced.
