- UF Honor Code and Code Enforcement sections provide quick access to the formal text of the official honor code and steps for enforcing the code at UF.
- Syllabus Resources offers suggestions and links for writing a binding statement in your syllabus to make students aware that they will be held responsible for integrity violations.
