Academic integrity and academic honesty are complex and often confusing issues. At its core, the concept of academic integrity ensures that, as a student, you are taking responsibility and being held accountable for your own education. This means that through your coursework you are providing a demonstration of your own ideas, and not what someone else has already learned. Academic integrity also ensures Webster’s reputation reflects the high quality learning experiences we offer and that the value of the degree you and all other Webster alumni receive is well-respected. Academic honesty is engaging in specific behaviors which uphold the University’s standards of academic integrity - or goes against them in the case of academic dishonesty.                    ◦There are many types of academic dishonesty, including but not limited to plagiarism, cheating, fabrication, or facilitating dishonesty. What is plagiarism? Essentially, plagiarism is utilizing the words, ideas, or thoughts of others, and using them as your own. For more information about plagiarism, view Webster University’s website on academic integrity at http://www.webster.edu/academic-integrity/ Plagiarism has many different forms, including but not limited to:                    ◦missing or inaccurate citations of works referenced either at the end of the paper or within the text                    ◦paraphrasing another’s work without providing appropriate citations                    ◦submitting answers you did not reach own your own, perhaps found in the solutions manual for your text, an instructor's edition of the text or through a web search A little known twist on plagiarism is self-plagiarism. This is reusing words and ideas you have previously used in other works and assignments, representing them as newly created work. Should you ever want to reuse assignments, papers or other works you have submitted for prior courses, be sure to check with your instructor before doing so. If your instructor approves your use of previously written materials, be certain to provide appropriate citations of these items. What are the consequences for not adhering to Webster’s academic honesty policies? Webster takes the integrity of the institution and academic honesty very seriously. Consequences vary depending upon the nature and severity of the offense but, ultimately, you may also be subject to dismissal from the University and held to all applicable standards of the law. This is not a risk we recommend you take! If any form of academic dishonesty occurs within a course, specific outcomes may be determined at the instructor’s discretion. You may see a grade reduction, be assigned a failing grade for the assignment, or receive a failing grade for the course. Students who engage in plagiarism may be required to complete a plagiarism prevention course, helping you to better understand what plagiarism is and how to avoid it. How can I avoid academic dishonesty? Avoiding academic dishonesty begins with understanding what it is and why it is important for you to take your own education seriously. Why undertake the expense of a degree if you do not actually want to learn the material? It is also important to take the time to read over information such as this which helps you to be aware of potential pitfalls - if you have made it this far, you’ve taken at least one step in the right direction! Lastly, remember that acquiring knowledge is a process which takes time. You will be presented with many opportunities to take an easy route, but in order for true learning to occur, you must be willing to challenge yourself. You might not always be successful, but there are plenty of resources available to help you improve.

The Great 2024 Printer Migration at Webster University Webster University's Office of Procurement and Information Technology department are teaming up with Konica Minolta to initiate a major upgrade of our campus printing infrastructure. Over the next several days, the university will be replacing its outgoing Xerox printers with the new Konica Minolta Bizhub devices. This article provides an overview of the migration process, timelines, and what to expect during this transition. Migration Timeline The printer replacement will be executed over six days, with a carefully planned schedule to ensure a smooth transition: September 3rd: Replacement starts with Loretto Hall. Printers on the ground floor and 1st floor will be replaced, with work beginning on the 2nd floor. September 4th: Continuation at Loretto Hall, completing the 2nd floor and proceeding to the 3rd and 4th floors. September 5th: Webster Hall will receive 10 new devices. September 6th: Printers will be replaced in EAHL (4 printers), ISB (4 printers), and Sverdrup (2 printers). September 9th: Printers will be installed in VAS (2 printers), UC (2 printers), Title IX building (200 Hazel) (1 printer), Old Orchard (1 printer), West Hall Residential (1 printer), Luhr (2 printers), WVA (1 printer), CMS (1 printer), and MCISA (1 printer). September 10th: The final installations will be completed in GPP (2 printers), Pearson (1 printer), Priest (2 printers), Thompson Music (2 printers), Hunt House (1 printer), OLC (1 printer), LHTC (3 printers), and the Library (4 printers).By the end of the day on September 10th, all 63 full-capability printers will be fully installed and operational across the Webster Groves Campus. New Printing Software As part of this upgrade, you will notice a new icon on your computer desktop named "Papercut Print Deploy Client" (depicted in green). This icon signifies the new printing software that will manage your print jobs. No direct action is required from you; the icon simply indicates that the new system is in place. Automatic Toner Replenishment The Konica Minolta printers will be part of the Auto Toner Replenishment (ATR) program. When a printer's toner level drops below 20%, an automatic alert will notify Konica Minolta to send a replacement toner. Although manual toner requests are possible, Konica Minolta recommends against this for printers enrolled in the ATR program. For small form factor printers requiring manual replenishment, you can request toner by calling 1-800-456-5664 or emailing gcsmanageddesk@kmbs.konicaminolta.us. Toner Management and Support Webster University Mail & Copy will handle the incoming shipments of toner. Each toner is associated with a specific printer's location to streamline the replenishment process. For detailed instructions on changing toner and other official documents, please refer to the Konica Minolta video and documentation hub: Konica Minolta Training. During the transition period, existing printers will remain in service until the new Konica Minolta devices are fully operational. Konica Minolta will also place support stickers on all printers, including both full-capability and small-scale models. For any troubleshooting needs, Konica Minolta Support will be available to assist you.
