What constitutes cheating?

Cheating can be defined in many ways. Examples of cheating include copying off a classmate’s exam or homework assignment, plagiarism, having unauthorized crib notes during a test, leaving a test to check answers, and using a cell phone or other device to send or receive answers during a test. Any attempt at cheating is wrong because not only are you putting yourself at an unfair advantage over classmates and behaving unethically, you are also cheating yourself out of the opportunity to determine how well you really know the subject.
