How can you squander even one more day not taking advantage of the greatest
shifts of our generation? How dare you settle for less when the world has made it
so easy for you to be remarkable?

Grading Procedures
Honor Code
Honor Code: Every member of Elon University has the right to live and
learn in an atmosphere of trust and support. Responsibility for maintaining
these values in our community rests with each individual member. Values
that promote this atmosphere include:
The Honor Pledge is an abbreviated form of the Honor Code. Students sign
the Honor Pledge when they join the Elon community to publicly affirm their
intent to behave according to the values of the Elon community. They also
sign this pledge on papers, tests, assignments and other documents when
requested. The honor pledge is printed on signs in classrooms and residence
halls throughout campus.
Scope of the Honor Code: Elons honor code applies to both individual
student and organizational behavior:
To clarify the types of violations, Elon has grouped them into policies that
cover social situations and policies that cover academic situations. These two
policies may overlap, with one or more types of violations being reported
from a single incident, when appropriate.
Social Policies: Support the shared values and communal expectations that
promote the development of the individual and the community. To be clear
about what social behavior is unacceptable, Elon has listed areas of the
policy that clarify components of social responsibility. Each area of potential
violation is defined, and typical sanctions are listed. In cases where more
than one violation has occurred as a result of an incident, sanctions will
likely increase in severity. Multiple or egregious violations of social policies
may result in disciplinary suspension or permanent separation from Elon
University.
