Important Points

Plagiarism and Collusion – Plagiarism involves presenting work, excerpts, ideas, or passages of another author without appropriate referencing and attribution. Collusion occurs when two or more students submit work which is so alike in ideas, content, wording, and/or structure that the similarity goes beyond what might have been mere coincidence. Plagiarism and collusion are very serious offenses and any student found copying another student’s work or quoting work from another source without recognizing and disclosing that source will be penalized.

Please do not cut and paste, do not copy.
