Dress and Grooming Standards: Virtuous thoughts and actions and language and dress invite the Holy
Ghost into our lives. Conversely, casualness about or the breaking of covenants and commitments, failing to
pray and study the scriptures, and inappropriate thoughts and actions and language and dress cause the
Holy Ghost to withdraw or to avoid us altogether. Can you begin to understand why abiding by the Honor
and Dress Codes is so important to your success at Ricks College? These Codes are not about curfew and
clothing; rather, they are about commitments and obedience. Most importantly, the Honor and Dress Codes
are about inviting the presence of the Holy Ghost into our lives, into our classrooms, and to this special
campus. (Elder David A. Bednar, AReceiving, Recognizing, and Responding to the promptings of the Holy
Ghost@, August 31, 1999)
You are expected to abide by the BYU-Idaho Code of Honor and Dress and Grooming Standards. These
standards apply to ALL CLASSROOMS AND ALL LABS. If you are not sure of the standards, please read the
information found on the BYU-I website at www.byui.edu/honorcode/dress.html
Hats and caps are not to be worn in class or labs and are not considered appropriate classroom attire for
both men and women during class.
Homework: Assignments are always due on the specified due date. No late work will be accepted.
Homework must be submitted electronically using the Blackboard website in the method explained in class.
The links to assignments disappear at 11:55 pm on the date due. If you find an error in an assignment that
has been submitted, before it has been graded and before the due date; contact Brother Armstrong in
person only to clear the assignment and allow you to resubmit it. Do not attempt to email

Academic Dishonesty: AFor what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his soul.@
Mark 8:36. Cheating in any form is unacceptable conduct. Please do your own work.
Striving for Excellence: ALearn here the disciplines that will help you travel the course of your lives, the
most important of which is self-discipline, the power to govern your thoughts, your words, your acts,
notwithstanding the temptations that come before you.@ Gordon B. Hinckley
An important part of the college experience is gaining employment skills. This includes prioritizing, meeting
deadlines, and time management. An important component of this process is turning in a completed
assignment on time. I consider turning in the assignment on time in the correct place part of the assignment.
There are many activities that students can engage in at the university. It is easy to let these distract from
completing the assignments on time. Also students may wait till the last minute only to find the lab is not
open or they may have technical difficulties (remember Murphy=s Law). Everyone has the same
opportunity and responsibility to complete the assignment on time, so it would be unfair and unethical to
accept anyone=s late work. Occasionally there are exceptions, such as health concerns, contact the
instructor as soon as possible to discuss alternatives. Technical difficulties are not a valid excuse.
Cisco Certification: Students entering the course with Cisco Certification need to contact the instructor
within the first two weeks of the course to see about testing out. Students may choose to take the Cisco
Certified Network Associate (CCNA) or Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician (CCENT) instead of the final.
Students who receive this certification during the semester may bring proof to the instructor before the final
CIT 240 Spring 2010 Page 5 of 6
exam and will receive an A for the final and will not be required to take the final. Certification testing is not
a requirement for this course, and not a course activity. Students attempting certification tests will pay all
fees associated with testing, and failure to pass the certification test will not affect the final. Cisco Network
Academy tests are not certification tests, and will not substitute for the final.
