Academic Honesty Guidelines
"Academic honesty is essentially giving credit where credit is due. And not misrepresenting what you have done
and what work you have produced. When a piece of work is submitted by a student it is expected that all
unquoted and uncited ideas and text are original to the student. Uncited and unquoted text, diagrams, etc.,
which are not original to the student, and which the student presents as their own work is considered
academically dishonest."

Useful Suggestions
- When sending emails to the instructor or TAs, please indicate "CSE 2011" in the subject line (e.g., "CSE
2011 - Lecture notes unreadable"), or they may be deleted by mistake as spam. Include your name and student ID
in the email.
- For questions related to course materials, it is best to
ask during lectures or office hours. Email is not a good way to explain course materials.
- Read the lecture notes and textbook before and again right after each lecture. Work on suggested
homework problems to reinforce your understanding of the lecture materials.
