Plagiarism is an extremely serious offense.
Using published or unpublished material without citing the source is plagiarism. You may use someone else's material if you appropriately enclose it in quotation marks and precisely reference its source. Such material, however, should be used sparingly, if at all. Simply paraphrasing someone else's material by minimal rearrangement of the wording is also plagiarism. It is an equally serious offense if you write a paper for someone else, or copy someone else's work, or allow someone to copy your work.
