In addition, it is academically dishonest to submit your own previously written work for a current assignment or to submit an assignment in more than one class without the prior permission of the instructors. If you cannot produce that material upon request, the assignment will be considered unsatisfactory and given a failing grade. Plagiarism and academic misconduct of any kind may constitute grounds for failing the course and may result in further disciplinary action according to university policy. Consult the NMSU Student Handbook regarding your responsibilities and rights concerning plagiarism and academic dishonesty. In addition, writing textbooks contain useful discussions of plagiarism.
Students are responsible for protecting their own work.
It is your responsibility to ensure that other students do not copy your work or submit your work as their own. Allowing your work to be used inappropriately makes you guilty of academic misconduct and subject to sanctions. Back To Main Index Email the Webmaster with comments or problems.
