LUC The hagUe ProfiLe 1

3. While the faculty alone has the right and obligation to set academic requirements
and standards, the students and faculty will work together to establish
optimal conditions for honourable academic work.
Examples of conduct which will be regarded as being in violation of the Honour
Code include:
• Copying from another’s work or allowing another to copy from one’s own;
• Unpermitted or unacknowledged collaboration;
• Plagiarism;
• Submitting the same piece of work to different instructors for grading, or
revising and resubmitting a piece of work from one course for another
without the instructor’s knowledge and consent;
• Giving or receiving unpermitted aid on a take-home examination.
4. Because LUC is a residential college, the Honour Code is also an undertaking
of the students, individually and collectively:
a. that they will always seek to balance their individual freedom against respect
for others;
b. that they will deal with conflict and adversity in a mature manner, seeking
resolution through dialogue, and experiencing disagreements as an opportunity
for personal growth;
c. that they will respect the environment and facilities of the college and its
accommodation, including the wider environment around these buildings
in the neighbouring communities;
d. that they will be respectful of the rights of others to relax and enjoy themselves
on the college premises, including in the dormitories, but will also be
respectful of those seeking quiet and privacy;
e. that they will not engage in any illegal activities or other activities that may
dishonour LUC.

take action as appropriate.
8. Where the rules and regulations of other bodies or offices in LUC seem
to conflict with the Honour Code, in principle or in practice, the Dean of
LUC should be made aware and will be responsible for resolving any such
conflicts.
