College of Architecture Mission Statement |
Course Requirements |
Weekly web postings of design process, product, and presentation will be the basis of the semester grade. Project weights will be in proportion to assigned time on projects. |
All work must be completed and loaded on the server before 4:20 pm on the indicated dates. Late work will be penalized 10 points per day. Work will be graded A:90-100, B:80-89, C:70-79, D:60-69, F:50-59, or Missing:0. At the discretion of the instructor some work may be graded Pass:100, Fail:50, or Missing:0. |
"A grade of C or better is required for all courses included in the architecture degree plan. In the college, a C is equivalent to a grade of 70-79." |
Every class is important. If absence is unavoidable, ask reliable
classmates for class content, lecture notes, etc. Credit for late work will be considered only with advanced official notification and/or medical or authorized leave documentation. |
"[More than 10% of class meetings] absences are considered excessive and constitute cause for having the student drop the class or receive a grade of 'F', or 'I' when appropriate." |
"To create and preserve a classroom atmosphere that optimizes teaching
and learning, all participants share a responsibility in creating a
civil and non-disruptive forum. Students are expected to conduct
themselves at all times in this classroom in a manner that does not
disrupt teaching or learning. The instructor is authorized to take such
steps as are necessary if the behavior of a student disrupts the normal
classroom procedure. Instructors may remove a student for the single
class session in which such disruptive behavior becomes continuous
and/or serious, and may begin disciplinary proceedings." "Students are expected to assist in maintaining a classroom environment that is conducive to learning. In order to assure that all students have the opportunity to gain from time spent in class, unless otherwise approved by the instructor, students are prohibited from engaging in any other form of distraction." |
Civility in the Classroom (pdf) |
"The College of Architecture reserves the right to retain, exhibit, and reproduce work submitted by students. Work submitted for a grade is the property of the college and remains so until it is returned to the student." |
Academic Integrity "It is the aim of the faculty of Texas Tech University to foster a spirit of complete honesty and a high standard of integrity. The attempt of students to present as their own any work that they have not honestly performed is regarded by the faculty and administration as a serious offense and renders the offenders liable to serious consequences, possibly suspension." "Scholastic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, cheating, plagiarism, collusion, falsifying academic records, misrepresenting facts, and any act designed to give unfair academic advantage to the student ... or the attempt to commit such an act." "Cheating includes, but is not limited to, the following: ▪ Collaborating with or seeking aid or receiving assistance from another student or individual during a test or in conjunction with an assignment without authority. ▪ Discussing the contents of an examination with another student who will take the examination. ▪ Divulging the contents of an examination, for the purpose of preserving questions for use by another, when the instructor has designated that the examination is not to be removed from the examination room or not to be returned to or kept by the student." "Plagiarism includes, but is not limited to, the appropriation of, buying, receiving as a gift, or obtaining by any means material that is attributable in whole or in part to another source, including words, ideas, illustrations, structure, computer code, other expression and media, and presenting that material as one's own academic work being offered for credit. Any student who fails to give credit for quotations or for an essentially identical expression of material taken from books, encyclopedias, magazines, Internet documents, reference works or from the themes, reports, or other writings of a fellow student is guilty of plagiarism." "Collusion includes, but is not limited to, the unauthorized collaboration with another person in preparing academic assignments offered for credit or collaboration with another person to commit a violation of any section of the rules on scholastic dishonesty." |
TTU Catalog Academic Regulations |
Giving aid or receiving aid are both violations of academic integrity. |
"Texas Tech University students, faculty and administrators are committed to creating a university atmosphere that is free of academic dishonesty. All members of the university community are responsible for upholding the standards of excellence and for having integrity in the work they produce. The standard is for all members of the Texas Tech community to contribute to the campus environment in an ethical and honest manner. Integrity matters to all members of the Texas Tech community." | TTU Integrity Matters (pdf) |
"As members of the academic community, university students enjoy the privileges and share the obligations of the larger community of which the university is a part. Students are entitled to the privileges which accrue to them by virtue of this membership. These privileges carry with them the obligations of responsible citizenship." | TTU Code of Student Conduct | |
All assignments submitted for grading shall be the exclusive work of the individual student unless collaboration is explicitly called for by an assignment. | This semester, no collaborative assignments are planned for this course. |
