General Requirements:
Cheating on an examination (in-class or out-of-class exam) will result in an E for 
the course. (There are no examinations for this CVEEN 1400)
Cheating on a homework assignment will result in an E for the assignment.
Cheating more than once on a homework assignment will result in an E for the course.
Assignments:
If an assignment is labeled individual, then you must complete it alone without any assistance for your classmates. If an assignment is labeled team or group, you may complete it and submit it as a group. (For CVEEN 1400 all assignments, are done as individuals. If you submit someone else's drawing as your own, this constitutes cheating.)
Honor Pledge:
All assignments must have the following signed pledge at the front of the assignment:
On my honor as a student of the University of Utah, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment.
If the pledge is missing or is not signed, the assignment will receive a 10 percent reduction. By signing this pledge, you are certifying that the homework is your own work.  This pledge may be handwritten and signed on the first page of the assignment. (For CVEEN 1400, this pledge should be signed and included in the title block for drawings or placed on the cover page for a set of drawings.)
Citation of Sources:
In writing assignments, you are encouraged to perform internet searches for information.  However, you must attribute the source properly in your writing.
If you are directly using the information without modification, use the following format using quotation marks.
 "A civil engineer is a person who practices civil engineering – the application of planning, designing, constructing, maintaining, and operating infrastructures while protecting the public and environmental health, as well as improving existing infrastructures that have been neglected. Civil engineering is one of the oldest engineering disciplines because it deals with constructed environment[1] including planning, designing, and overseeing construction and maintenance of building structures, and facilities, such as roads, railroads, airports, bridges, harbors, channels, dams, irrigation projects, pipelines, power plants, and water and sewage systems."

If you are paraphrasing or summarizing the writing of others, then you must reference the work.
Youd and Bartlett (2002) believe that liquefaction-induced lateral spread is a major cause of earthquake damage.
