same paper to multiple courses without the knowledge of all instructors involved can result in a
failing grade. Incidents involving academic dishonesty will be reported to AAST/GSB officials for
appropriate sanctions.

Furthermore, students must always submit work that represents their original words or ideas. If any
words or ideas used in a class posting or assignment submission do not represent the student’s
original words or ideas, all relevant sources must be cited along with the extent to which such
sources were used. Words or ideas that require citation include, but are not limited to, all hard copy
