Conflict of Interest

Each member of the university community is responsible for acting in an ethical and professional manner. This responsibility includes avoiding conflict of interest, conducting instruction in an ethical manner and protecting the rights of all individuals. All members of the university community- including members of the university's faculty, administration, student body and staff should conduct themselves with the greatest professional objectivity.
Academic Integrity Academic integrity is of central importance in the university community and involves committed allegiance to the values, the principles and the code of behavior held to be central in that community. The core of a University's integrity is scholastic honesty. Academic dishonesty is a serious offense that can diminish the quality of scholarship, the academic environment, the academic reputation and the quality of a Lordland University degree. All forms of academic dishonesty at Lordland Education Group are a violation of university policy and will be considered a serious offense.
