Land Acknowledgement
We recognize that many Indigenous nations have longstanding relationships with the
territories upon which York University campuses are located that precede the
establishment of York University. York University acknowledges its presence on the
traditional territory of many Indigenous Nations.

The area known as Tkaronto has been care taken by the Anishinabek Nation, the
Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Huron-Wendat, and the Métis. It is now home to many
Indigenous Peoples. We acknowledge the current treaty holders, the Mississaugas of the
Credit First Nation. This territory is subject of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt
Covenant, an agreement to peaceably share and care for the Great Lakes region.

Academic integrity maintains the value and legitimacy of


your credential and academic institution.
Plagiarism & Cheating

and trying to pass it off as your own. Plagiarism and cheating also includes making it possible for others to cheat.
• This includes but is not limited to:
- Copying part or all of an assignment from other source(s)
- Not referencing your work and/or not referencing your work properly
- Submitting the same/very similar work as your classmate(s)
- Submitting the same/very similar work in multiple schools, courses or programs
- Not completing your own work, buying assignments, and/or hiring someone to do your work
- Giving your work to others, posting assignments and/or exams online, and/or selling your assignments

• Consequences include receiving a grade of zero on an assignment, failing a course, failing a program, a
permanent notation on your student record, and/or expulsion from the School. Intentions do not matter.
• You will be required to submit your work through Turnitin
