to acknowledge direct assistance or borrowed material from other scholars or researchers;
to realize that the supervisor has other duties which may at times delay the student's access to the supervisor at short notice;
to give serious and considered attention to advice and direction from the supervisor;
to submit their work to the judgment of SIM and to abide by its decision when any rights of appeal, if exercised, have been exhausted;
to familiarize themselves with SIM and University regulations and standards to which the writer of a thesis is required to conform;
