Peer-to-Peer File Sharing

Jamestown Business College does not tolerate peer-to-peer file sharing. File sharing happens when a student downloads or shares copyrighted materials without the consent of the copyright owner. Jamestown Business College also recognizes copying student work whether online or with someone you know as an infringement of the peer-to-peer file sharing policy (i.e.: cheating, plagiarism). In a digital age nothing is anonymous. You must be aware that your actions are traceable and may result in a significant financial penalty, as well as dismissal from JBC.

Failure to adhere to this policy may result in civil and criminal liabilities as outlined in the Federal Student Aid Handbook.
