Graduate Community: Bentley Honor Code

The students of Bentley, in a spirit of mutual trust and fellowship, aware of the values of a true education and the challenges posed by the world, do hereby pledge to accept the responsibility for honorable conduct in all academic activities, to assist one another in maintaining and promoting personal integrity, to abide by the principles set forth in the Honor Code, and to follow the procedures and observe the policies set forth in the Academic Integrity System in the Graduate Student Handbook. 

Learning is a privilege that demands responsibility. At Bentley, students and faculty are members of an academic community that support integrity both inside and outside the classroom. The expectation at Bentley is that students will take advantage of the opportunity for intellectual development and, in doing so, will conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the standards of academic integrity. When these standards are violated or compromised, individuals and the entire Bentley community suffer. Students who engage in acts of academic dishonesty not only face university censure but also may harm their future educational and employment opportunities.

The Graduate Student Handbook contains detailed information academic integrity, including faculty rights/responsibilities, student rights/responsibilities, and the process governing academic integrity violations.
