Direct Plagiarism -- including a verbatim quotation without a proper citation

Paraphrasing without a citation...passing off the ideas of others as your own

The inclusion of graphics, tables, charts or web pages without proper acknowledgement

Double dipping -- turning in the same paper for more than one class

See the "Useful Websites" Tab under Bibliography for more information about how to credit your sources.

Start your research early -- procrastination can lead to last minute stress & sloppy work

Keep notes or a bibliography of the sources you consult as you go -- it is easier than reconstructing it at the end.

Contact or visit the Writing Center for help on  incorporating your evidence & sources into your paper.
