Saint Martin's University is a community of faculty, students and staff engaged in the exchange of ideas in the ongoing pursuit of academic excellence. Essential to our mission is a focused commitment to scholarly values and intellectual integrity, and a respect for the ideas, beliefs and work of others. This commitment extends to all aspects of academic performance. All members are expected to abide by ethical standards both in their conduct and their exercise of responsibility to themselves and toward other members of the community. As an expression of our shared belief in the Benedictine tradition, we support the intellectual, social, emotional, physical and spiritual nurturing of students.

Saint Martin's University defines academic dishonesty as violating the academic integrity of an assignment, test and/or evaluation of any coursework. This dishonest practice occurs when you seek to gain for yourself or another an academic advantage by deception or other dishonest means. You have a responsibility to understand the requirements that apply to particular assessments and to be aware of acceptable academic practice regarding the use of material prepared by others. Therefore, it is your responsibility to be familiar with the policies surrounding academic dishonesty as these may differ from other institutions.

Any use of technology that misleads a reviewer in assessing the student's mastery of a specific set of skills or knowledge is a type of intellectual dishonesty, that is, a type of cheating. Students who are unsure about the appropriateness of using an artificial intelligence tool (or "AI") must check with the instructor before using it. This includes the use of tools that generate text, images, video, code, and other works. If you are permitted by your instructor to use one or more AI tools in producing your work, you must disclose the use of that tool. You should say which tool you used and how you used it. Then if you use specific AI generated content (text, images, videos, audio, code, and so on) you must cite it in the style (APA, MLA, and so on) specified by your instructor.

If you are absent from class due to university-sanctioned activities, such as sports, it is your responsibility to request that the absence be excused; otherwise, the absence will be recorded as unexcused. Absent students are responsible for catching up with the class, and if any assignments are due on the day of the absence, it is your responsibility to turn in the assignments on time (prior to class). Assignments may be submitted as an attachment to email.

The Student Health Center assists students with a wide range of health issues, including colds, flu, COVID-19 and other medical concerns.

Recognizing and embracing diversity is an essential part of academic life and learning. At Saint Martin's, our Catholic mission and Benedictine charism call us to welcome and embrace all who enter our university. We promote the transcendent dignity of the human person and commit ourselves to fostering an inclusive and global learning environment. Our respect for persons means we welcome the similarities and differences that comprise our students, faculty, and staff; we open ourselves to the profound change that different cultures, traditions, and beliefs can have on our practice of community; and we educate students to transform our world for peace and justice. We support our students in their navigation of university life, addressing issues of conflict through the ARC Reporting System (Accountability, Responsibility, and Community) to restore community. Saint Martin's offers multiple offices and resources to promote diversity across campus. The Chief Diversity Officer, Dr. John P. Hopkins, is available at jhopkins@stmartin.edu. All are welcome in the Dignity Center Lounge, located in Harned Hall, 207.

Your experience in this class is important to me. If you have already established accommodations with Disability Support Services (DSS), please communicate your approved accommodations to me at your earliest convenience so we can discuss your needs in this course. If you have not yet established services through DSS, but have a temporary health condition or permanent disability that requires accommodations (conditions include but are not limited to mental health, attention-related, learning, vision, hearing, physical or health impacts), you are welcome to contact DSS at 360-438-4580 or smu.dss@stmartin.edu. DSS offers resources and coordinates reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities and/or temporary health conditions. Reasonable accommodations are established through an interactive process between you, your instructor(s) and DSS. It is the policy and practice of Saint Martin's University to create inclusive and accessible learning environments consistent with federal and state laws.

Saint Martin's University is committed to providing an environment free from sex discrimination, including sexual harassment and sexual violence. There are Title IX/sexual harassment posters around campus that include the contact information for confidential reporting and formal reporting. Confidential reporting is where you can talk about incidents of sexual harassment and gender-based crimes including sexual assault, stalking, and domestic/relationship violence. Confidential resources include the Counseling and Wellness Center (1st floor St. Raphael Center) or the Student Health Center (Burton Hall 102). These confidential resources can help you without having to report your situation to the formal reporting process via the Interim Dean of Students - Ms. Ann Adams, Title IX Coordinator & Associate VP of Human Resources - Ms. Cynthia Johnson, and/or Public Safety - Ms. Sharon Schnebly unless you request that they make a report. Please be aware that, in compliance with Title IX and under the Saint Martin's University policies, educators must report incidents of sexual harassment and gender-based crimes including sexual assault, stalking, and domestic/relationship violence. If you disclose any of these situations in class, on papers, or to me personally, I am required to report it. I appreciate that you feel comfortable talking with me. No one deserves to experience such behavior. Please know that our conversation is not confidential, but it is private. As someone who cares about your safety and well-being, I want you know that I have a responsibility to tell a member of the Title IX Team (listed above) so that he/she is aware and can provide you with information about options available to you regarding your safety and access to support services.
