If you come late, you will have missed that quiz. See the Pamphlet for more explanation. At the end of the semester, you will be submitting a paper or papers for the course's most important grade. All of the writing in this submission MUST grow out of early drafts that I have seen. If I receive a submission which is wholly or in part of unfamiliar origin, I will give the whole submission an F. See the Pamphlet for more explanation.
Colleges take seriously any kind of academic dishonesty.
A student may receive an F for the course if she submits a paper that contains significant plagiarism and may even be dismissed from the school if the plagiarism is considered serious enough. Because their prior training may have failed to teach students how not to plagiarize, my policy is to talk to students first. If I am not satisfied with the explanation, the student will usually be given a chance to rewrite the paper. Another kind of plagiarism occurs when students ask one another for the answers to quizzes.
