Policies:
Plagiarism will not be tolerated. This includes copying work from classmates and other sources. All writing assignments will go through an online filter which very specifically determines any work borrowed from other sources, even papers turned into WSU or other colleges. If properly documented and credited to the source author, this is permitted, but simply copying and pasting is not acceptable. Students who are found to be using plagiarism will automatically fail the course-no exceptions, no debate.
