All work submitted must be your own. You may discuss assignments together, but all that you write should be yours. If you wish to incorporate someone else's ideas, you must acknowledge your source whether or not you quote the material directly. Be sure you read and understand the DRC's Statement on Scholastic Responsibility . If you have questions about the use of source materials, see me before turning in the assignment.
Plagiarism is a serious offense in college.
Serious cases of plagiarism will result in failing the course and possibly expulsion from the university. Do not use editing services other than those provided by the Undergraduate Writing Center or the Learning Skills Center. Bring any complaints to the instructor's attention first. Students in CWRL classes and CWRL instructors have made valuable contributions to research in teaching writing. Some of this work has found its way into research journals and books intended to help improve writing instruction.
