ACADEMIC HONESTY |
|

The Word of God is “a lamp unto our
feet and a light unto our path” and we are
to confirm it by keeping His righteous
ordinances (Psalm 119:105-106). It is
assumed that academic honesty will prevail.
Logos policies in this area are posted on
our website. Problems in this area will be
handled with an equal concern for love and
justice.
Policy on Research and Plagiarism:
Merriam-Webster’s College Dictionary defines
plagiarism as, “to steal and pass off (the
ideas or words of another) as one’s own: use
(another’s production) without crediting the
source ”while fully supporting the use of
tools, reference works, the internet and
other available media. Logos requires that
all of the work submitted by a student for
grading and evaluation be the result of
their own writing efforts and creative
processes.
We encourage you to use all information
available for the purpose of supporting your
work, however, you must clearly identify
quotes and excerpts as the work of another
author and properly cite the source. Logos
has a policy for reviewing the content of
all papers submitted for grading and
evaluation through the use of a
technological process.
By means of this process faculty members are
able to identify situations where the
information was taken directly from other
publications or modified by the student and
subsequently inserted into the work to be
graded. Students should be advised that
plagiarism in any form is prohibited and
that work containing plagiarized materials
will be downgraded and returned for
resubmission. The Academic Dean is notified
whenever a student submits work for
evaluation and grading that contains
plagiarized materials. Continued instances
of plagiarism will result in academic
probation and may lead to other disciplinary
measures.
