Academic Honesty

Contest and Competition Integrity

The CCC/CCO collaborates with subject-matter experts and others to uphold and enforce the rules that protect the integrity of its competitions. To promote fairness as much as possible, scores may be cancelled or disqualified when there is evidence that a CCC/CCO rule has been violated. 

Scores may also be disqualified based on statistical irregularities based on data collected since the contest's inception. The CCC/CCO is committed to maintaining academic integrity while making every reasonable effort to minimize incorrect cancellations or disqualifications.
