During the academic year, 1999-2000, a subcommittee of faculty and students at the University of Nevada, Reno, designed and distributed a survey to determine faculty and students' knowledge and perceptions of academic dishonesty. A sample representing 5% of the 12000 student population that included students enrolled in introductory geology, introductory physics, introductory chemistry, and combined lower and upper division courses in economics and political sciences, was obtained. A sample representing 18% of the faculty (234 of 1325) was obtained. This paper presents observations and conclusions based on these surveys. |
