Academic Integrity
It has been brought to our attention that various groups have reached out to Clemson students via email and Facebook offering to assist you with coursework assignments, papers, and presentations for a fee.  This is a friendly reminder that cheating of any kind will not be tolerated by the Clemson MBA Program.  Our professors have software to track any suspicious activity, plagiarism, or copying of another students work.  We pride ourselves in having a great group of students and know that this does not apply to the majority of you.  Keep up the good work!
