Student Access to Tests and Testing Materials Outside of the Test Period

It is best not to give the same tests multiple times, particularly take-home tests and tests that have been returned to students. Even when students only have access to tests in the professor’s office, some questions and answers have become available to other students because of the relative ease of sharing information electronically. Likewise, as a rule it is unwise to have a student assistant type, photocopy, collate, or otherwise have access to test material.
