I follow this policy and will not tolerate plagiarism. Plagiarism is taking the work of another person and passing it off as one's own. I will not pass a student who cheats. This means that you will consult at least four books, plus four articles, plus four WEB pages and other resources while searching for information on your topic. Doing less than this may result in a lower grade on a research paper.
Effective research takes time and planning.
I do not. If I need to assist you in a special way let me know early in the semester. I will do my best to make my classroom conducive to your learning. Arrive on time. Try not to leave early.
