Academic Misconduct and Plagiarism

Academic misconduct includes, but is not limited to, knowingly or unknowingly taking, using, or copying another’s work and submitting work done, in whole or in part, by another person as one’s own; intentionally falsifying information; or taking another’s ideas with the intention of using them as one’s own.

Plagiarism can be intentional or accidental. The “Cite it Right” Canvas course includes information about proper citations. You can use the Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL) to learn more about plagiarism and appropriate citations.

More information on academic misconduct and plagiarism can be found in college policy, AP 521 – Academic Misconduct: Plagiarism. College policies can be found here.
