Plagiarism is literary theft.
Using someone else's ideas, whether those of a student or the author of a book, without acknowledging your source, is theft and will result in an F on this course. Copying someone else's paper and changing many words is still theft. I would rather see an inept attempt to acknowledge indebtedness than theft. Consult your student handbook and The Harbrace Handbook for further discussion of plagiarism. Critical paper handout will describe your research project.
