Please check your messages
before or after class. Use of cell phones, texting, Web surfing,
listening to iPods/MP3 players or use of other devices is not
allowed during class time. All such devices should be turned to
“vibrate” before class begins. I will ask you to remove ear buds
and other such devices. If you anticipate an emergency (e.g., spouse
going into labor), let me know ahead of class and I will grant
permission for you to leave the device turned up. In the case of
unanticipated emergencies, have the person contact our office
professional (OP) at 570-662-4771. The OP can come over to SH
213 in under one minute to let you know about the emergency. |

"Students are expected to do their own academic work. Dishonesty in academic work, including cheating, academic misconduct, fabrication, or plagiarism is unacceptable. Faculty are expected to instruct students in ways of avoiding these forms of academic dishonesty. Faculty are also responsible for assessing and reporting all charges of academic dishonesty to the Office of the Provost. The student handbook, The Mountie Manual for upperclassmen, or The Student Planner for freshmen, outlines the procedures faculty will use to initiate disciplinary action in cases of academic dishonesty. Faculty are responsible for
informing students of course evaluation criteria, for adherence to
the stated criteria, and for determining grades in a fair and
equitable manner. If a student charges that a faculty member has
discharged professional duties in an improper, arbitrary,
discriminatory, or otherwise unjustified manner, the complaint will
be considered by the procedures outlined in The Mountie Manual for
upperclassmen or The Student Planner for freshmen." |

“Any student with documented
psychological or learning disorders or other significant medical
conditions that may affect their learning should work with Mr.
William Chabala in our Counseling Center (Phone: 662-4798; e-mail
wchabala@mansfield.edu)
to provide me with the appropriate letter so that I may serve their
particular needs more effectively. If you have an exceptionality
that requires class or testing accommodations, Mr. Chabala will work
with us to identify and implement appropriate interventions.” |

It is expected that all participants and the instructor will attempt to act in a manner consistent with the principles and commitments of the Psychology Department Honor Code |
