T H E 0 F A L P H A S P R I N G D E L T A 1 9 9 7 p I FROM THE DESK OF THE GRAND PRES I DENT The Power of Leadership Alpha Delta Pi is a way of life. Our commitment to value and ethics, high academic standard and social re ponsibility create an environment which encourages our members to work toward common goals, to a sume leader hip roles and to enjoy the benefits of lifetime involvement. - The Mi ion tatement of Alpha Delta Pi. There has been an intensive tudy of leader hip taking place o er the last couple of years at UCLA. Thi rudy focu e on the leader hip that emanate from an 'fJ,.,,..~..,.-~ --' individual a the "function of their commitment to making a dm renee for the b nefit of self and other ." In a recent publication of the Higher Education Re earch In titute thi definition of leadership from a ocial change framework is given: .. . "we regard a leader as o ne who i able to effect positive change for the betterment of other , the community, and ociety. All people in other word , are potential lead r . Moreover, the process of leadership cannot be de cribed imply in term of the behavior of an individual , rather, leadership involves collaborative relationship that lead to coil ctive action grounded in the hared values of people who work together to effect po itive chang ." That is Alpha Delta Pi ... and it i a way of life. Our Open Motto rates it clearly and simply . . . . "We live for each othe r." It's tared aga in in our Creed . .. "I believe that I mu t trive to become a well balanced person by following the dictate of the four point ymbolized by our diamond-shaped badge: first, strengthening my own character and per onality, second, watching my attitudes toward my fellow-beings, third, recognizing the value of high educational standards, and fourth, developing faith and loyalty. " Our hared value are stated there , as well as our commitment to others. The pictures on this cover and the women featured in thi i ue are living example of the Alpha Delta Pi leadership that is a way of life. They are making a difference on campu , in their community-locally and aero the world . Think back to a time a nd place when you were truly ucces ful, when you were involved, motivated and you accomplished a great goal. That inde cribable feeling i what the power of leadership feels like. By re-captu ring mentally that experience, we can learn how to upport and encourage one another in the development of our leadership potential so that truly, the sky is the limit for what we can accompli h. Sound like hard work? It is, but that's our heritage a Alpha Delta Pi' and , '·It i a way of life." It requires commitment from each and every member. .. "Commitrn nt is what tran forms a promise into rea lity. It i the word that speak boldly of your intention and th actio ns which spea k lo uder than word . It i making time when there i none--coming through time after time, yea r after yea r. Commitm nt i the tuff character i mad of the power to cha nge the face of thing . It is the daily triumph of integrity o er keptici m ." That i pha Delta Pi and R Member, Alpha Delta Pi i a way of life.

And conversely, your edu ca tion is va lu able to you and your future o nly in so far as your actual lea rning has taken place. Furthermo re, your acade mic record, coupl ed w ith your practice of aca de mic integri ty , provides a fo und ati o n fo r the professional integrity you w ill practice thro ug hout your lifetime. Fo r a mo ment, think of the consequ ences to you and our society as inadequ ately trained (educa ted) individuals provide services to our populatio n. Wo uld you w ant yo ur so n o r daughter to be taught by o meone w ho does not kn ow the subject matte r? Wo uld you wa nt a phys ician w ho did not lea rn e nough anatomy to perfo rm surgery o n you? Or will you be able to keep that first job o ut of college o r excel at gradu ate studies with its academic rigors if you do not know the mate rial th at is expecte d fro m your coursework and docume nted on your tran cript? Academic disho nesty is usua lly associated with using 'external assistance" during an exam, illega lly obtained exams, taking an exam with you and later claiming that the teacher must have lost it, fabricatio n and falsificatio n of mate rials, plagiarism, ghost writing and double submission of papers. All of us probably kn ow of someo ne w ho has succumbed to the temptatio ns of these acts of aca de mi c dishonesty , and if that is so, w e mu st be ever so vigilant to be p att of the solution and pre- ventio n of these behavio rs. Here are some behavio rs that re fl ect academi c integrity (a nd your intelligence and talent!): 1. Prep are fo r yo ur classes, ass ig nme nts a nd exa ms in a timely manne r. 2. Seek out your professors at office hours if you have any qu esti o ns abo ut th e syllabus befo re deadlines set in the course expectatio ns. 3. Attend class regul arl y and parti cipate in class discussio ns. 4. Docume nt your sources , wheth er it's a direct qu o tati o n, e lectro nic so urce , o r a pa raphrase o f ideas in evety assignment. 5. Sit aw ay fro m anyone e l e with at least o ne empty desk urro unding you o n evety side d uring exa ms. 6. Write and submit your own work unless you are wo rking on a group project and collabo rati o n is autho rized by the professor. 7. Ge t w ritten instru cto r pe rmissio n well in advance from both professors if you plan to submit th e sa me original pa per fo r co urse credi t in two courses . 8. Keep all of yo ur no tes, outlines and ro ugh drafts- anything that wo uld prove that your paper is your o riginal wo rk- in case yo u are ever qu estio ned . 9. Be familiar with the ho nor code of your insti tutio n so that you are kno wl edgea ble abo ut the co nsequ e nces fo r acts of aca de mic disho nestyand talk about these with your sisters. 10.
