Plagiarism
Plagiarism will not be tolerated. Plagiarism commonly occurs when the student utilizes an
author’s words without properly attributing the source. All sources must be referenced. No
cutting and pasting or copying is appropriate unless quoting. Purchasing papers of any form will
result in automatic failure for the course and a recommendation for expulsion.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool. The tool
is a starting point for instructors to check overall Academic Integrity and higher scores generally
indicate a higher probability of Academic Misconduct. The higher a score, the higher the
probability that there are too many quotations included in the narrative, and/or there are passages
that have not been properly cited.
