Understand the core commitment to academic integrity that unites all Princeton students. All Princeton students pledge to adhere to the Honor Code in the conduct of all written examinations, tests, and quizzes that take place in class. However, much work at Princeton—from papers to problem sets to the senior thesis—will be produced outside of class, whether in the library, your dorm room, or elsewhere. Such work is also governed by the University’s academic regulations, which are designed to ensure the integrity of your academic work. These regulations fall under the jurisdiction not of the Honor Committee, but of the Faculty-Student Committee on Discipline.
