Before posting to this discussion, read the instructor comments on Academic Dishonesty

Academic dishonesty is a threat to educational integrity. While all students know it happens and often witness things such as plagiarism, cheating, etc., these instances often go unreported.

The purpose of this discussion is to converse about instances of academic dishonesty and reporting of it. In addition, the concept of integrity will then be carried over into the workplace setting vis-a-vis addressing a colleague who has falsified a record, not completed work, or has come to work impaired.

Your response should be written in your own words, consist of complete sentences, and should be at least two to three complete paragraphs.
