Academic Integrity and Students with Disabilities


Academic Integrity Statement

Inclusion on Course Webpages

The University of Waterloo and the Faculty of Mathematics have requirements for text that must appear on course outlines and/or on course websites. The above text represents a hybrid of the two sets of requirements and should be included somewhere on each course website. The easiest way to do this on the www.student.cs web server is to place the following code in the .shtml file at the point where the statement is to be included:

<!--#include virtual="/~isg/policies/academic_integrity_include"-->

You may also wish to see the above in context in the source file for this page.

If the file is .html rather than .shtml it needs to be renamed to be .shtml. If it is index.html this will not likely pose any problems, but if it is not, links or bookmarks would be broken by the change. In this case a redirect should be installed so that requests for the old .html file will be redirected to the new filename ending in .shtml.

Such a redirect will look something like this:

Redirect permanent /~cs777/directory/file.html http://www.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca/~cs777/directory/file

and should be placed in a world-readable file called .htaccess in the same directory.

For php users, the path to the file needs to reflect its location on the disk. To include this information on a PHP page, you can use an include such as:

<?php include("/u/isg/public_html/policies/academic_integrity_include"); ?>
