Code of Academic Integrity
Cornell has a written code of academic integrity, according to which every student is expected to demonstrate absolute integrity in all academic undertakings. Integrity entails a firm adherence to a set of values. The values most essential to an academic community are grounded in honesty with respect to the intellectual efforts of oneself and others. While both students and faculty members must maintain and further these values, the code is concerned specifically with the conduct of students. Be sure that you have read it and understand it before starting classes.
Class attendance
Students are expected to regularly and punctually attend all courses in which they are enrolled. If you miss a class or seminar, it is your obligation to let the instructor know why and to provide documentation that you were seen at Gannett Health Services or another health care facility. Students who do not attend classes, complete assignments, or who are disruptive in any way in the classroom may be dismissed from the program.
