The Department of English and Philosophy defines plagiarism as taking personal credit for the words and ideas of others as they are presented in electronic, print, and verbal sources. The Department expects that students will accurately credit sources in all assignments.
Plagiarism is grounds for failing the class.
The grade of a late paper will be reduced substantially. In a given circumstance, depending upon the nature of the assignment, I reserve the right not to accept a late paper. I expect you to attend class. I consider class attendance to be not only a student s responsibility but also his or her job. But life happens.
