Academic Integrity
Policy:
We adhere by the CS academic integrity policies
outlined at the webpage https://agora.cs.illinois.edu/display/undergradProg/Honor+Code
. It is the course policy that all of the work you submit
for grading, or in support of graded material, as an individual or
project group, shall be your own
product, from inception to completion. The only resources you
can avail of in your
HWs
and MPs are the provided course materials (slides, textbooks, etc.),
and communication with instructor/TA via newsgroup and email. Please do
not reveal solutions on any of these fora. Exams are closed-book,
closed-notes, unless otherwise specified.
Violations of this academic integrity
policy will be treated seriously.
