What Is the Honor System Policy for Aiding and Abetting?

Aiding and Abetting is academic misconduct in which a person helps or enables another to breach academic honesty.

What the catalog says

The catalog states: “It is academic misconduct to encourage, enable, or cause others to commit a breach of academic honesty.”

“Anyone who helps or enables another in cheating, impersonation, plagiarism, or any other breach of academic honesty will be subject to the penalties outlined in the institution’s policy.”

“Simply providing it enables the receiver to misuse it and thus may be considered aiding and abetting.”

“Examples of aiding and abetting include sharing a care plan/lab report/formula/assignment/old exam/computer program with another student in person or electronically by email, text, camera, or on a social networking site such as Facebook.”

Where it applies

InterCoast Colleges’ catalog states this under “AIDING AND ABETTING” (pp. 48–52).
