at the end of the semester Americans with Disabilities Act The University of Texas at Arlington is on record as being committed to both the spirit and letter of federal equal opportunity legislation reference Public Law 93112 The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended With the passage of new federal legislation entitled Americans with Disabilities Act ADA pursuant to section 504 of The Rehabilitation Act there is renewed focus on providing this population with the same opportunities enjoyed by all citizens As a faculty member I am required by law to provide reasonable accommodation to students with disabilities so as not to discriminate on the basis of that disability Student responsibility primarily rests with informing faculty at the beginning of the semester and in providing authorized documentation through designated administrative channels If you require an accommodation based on disability I would like to meet with you in the privacy of my office during the first week of the semester to make sure you are properly accommodated Academic Dishonesty It is the philosophy of The University of Texas at Arlington that academic dishonesty is a completely unacceptable mode of conduct and will not be tolerated in any form All persons involved in academic dishonesty will be disciplined in accordance with University regulations and procedures Discipline may include suspension or expulsion from the University Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not limited to cheating plagiarism collusion the submission for credit of any work or
