National data reveal a growing tendency among students to cheat, and to regard more kinds of cheating as trivial. But an education based on shortcuts and fabrications, on cheating instead of learning, is no education at all. Raising the level of student academic integrity must be a high priority on college and university campuses today. The Center for Academic Integrity has been a valuable asset to the efforts of Duke students, faculty, and administrators to create a stronger climate for honor on our campus. We have a young honor code, instituted in 1993. The Center's survey and assessment materials have helped us focus on what needs to be done to strengthen our honor code culture. And the values promulgated by the Center - honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility - point the way toward the kind of educational community we are striving to become.
