The purpose of the Academic Integrity Gateway is to create an online guide to help Villanova University
students in their attempt to maintain academic honesty while abiding by
acceptable scholarly practices. We hope it will become a major point of
reference for faculty and librarians in their attempt to encourage high
standards for student research and writing as they uphold the academic integrity
policy of Villanova University.
