cs1120 Pledge
This is the only pledge you need to sign for the whole course. You
should not write generic pledges on your assignments and exams —
we assume students are honorable without you saying so. Please read it
carefully. Cross out and remark on any statements you are not willing
to agree to.

I will not lie, cheat or steal.
If I am unsure whether something would be considered lying, cheating or stealing, I will ask before doing it. Looking at solutions to or assignments from previous cs1120 courses is considered cheating, and I will not do it without getting permission first. If I do cheat on an assignment or exam, I will fail that assignment and also the entire course.
I will do what I can to help my fellow classmates learn. Except when specifically instructed not to, this means when other students ask me for help, I will attempt to provide it. I will look at their answers and discuss what I think is good or bad about their answers. I will help others improve their work, but will not give them my answers directly. I will try to teach them what they need to know to discover solutions themselves.
I will ask for help. I will make a reasonable effort to do things on my own first (or with my partners for group assignment), but will ask my classmates or the course staff for help before getting overly frustrated.
I will provide useful feedback. I realize that cs1120 is an evolving course and it is important that I let the course staff know what they need to improve the course. I will not wait until the end of the course to make the course staff aware of any problems. I will provide feedback either anonymously (using the course feedback form) or by contacting the course staff directly. I will fill out all course evaluation surveys honestly and thoroughly.
If I like the course, I will help promote it by telling my
friends about it. If I really like the course, I may even tell
professors and deans about it. If I don't like the course, I will
make sure the course staff know why.
