Citation and Plagiarism

Academic Integrity

Even if you cite your work correctly, you need to be aware of how not to plagiarize. The Council of Writing Program Administrators has prepared a definition of plagiarism:

In an instructional setting, plagiarism occurs when a writer deliberately uses someone else’s language, ideas, or other original (not common-knowledge) material without acknowledg­ing its source.
