Students are strongly advised to plan their time wisely throughout the semester. A student who waits until the last part of the semester to complete stories, especially their depth articles, will have a hard time getting the article published. The Outpost editors will not have time to produce the story for you at the last minute, nor will the instructor have time to edit all of your depth articles at once. You should have at least half of the stories you expect to publish for the semester done by Oct. 16. Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated and penalties can include canceling a student's enrollment without a grade or giving an F for the course.
Plagiarism is a serious offence in journalism courses and in the profession in general.
Don't do it. For more details, see pages 55-56 of the UNR General Catalog.
