Academic dishonesty, including plagiarism and cheating, is unacceptable at LaGuardia . Plagiarism is defined as representing someone else’s work, ideas, or words as your own.

Cheating is any type of misrepresentation in academic work. Academic dishonesty violates everyone and anyone who depends on the integrity of the college, its degrees, certificates and its courses. Therefore the college has the important responsibility of making every effort to cultivate the highest standard of academic integrity and conduct.

As The World’s Community College, LaGuardia is committed to the principles and spirit of affirmative action and equal opportunity.
