Late Assignments Assignments must be turned in at the beginning of the period on which they are due unless otherwise specified. Late papers will be penalized one letter grade for every day late. For example, if an assignment is due on Monday and you do not turn it in until class time on Wednesday, the assignment is 2 days late. Weekends and holidays will not count as late days. To avoid plagiarism, be sure to cite any phrase three words or longer of data that you have extracted from another source.
Plagiarized material is usually quite evident to the instructor.
The penalty for plagiarism can also be failure in the course. Just as print sources must be properly cited, electronic sources must also be properly cited. If you use the work of someone else to support your own work, remember to properly cite that work. This includes citing graphics that are used from other sources. The computer classrooms in the English Department are full-time classrooms.
