Late papers will be marked down one letter grade. I will not accept any late paper more than two weeks after the original due date. I don t care what the excuse is. If you plagiarize, you fail the assignment. If you plagiarize twice, you fail the class.
Plagiarism is bad, immoral, evil, and anti-democratic.
Essentially, if you ve plagiarized, you ve lied to me and demonstrated that you are too stupid or lazy for college. Unintentional plagiarism occurs when we forget to cite a source properly, or when we use another author s words without thinking. Intentional plagiarism is when you knowingly copy another s work and turn it in as your own. If you vanish for the semester, I will flunk you. I check my email far more often than my voice mail, so if it s important, email me.
