Plagiarism
Since the goal of this course is to gain experience writing and thinking critically, plagiarizing someone else’s writing, ideas, or work (presenting it as your own) defeats our purpose. While we will discuss plagiarism in class, it is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with FIU’s strict disciplinary policies regarding plagiarism, which are available at policies.fiu.edu.
​
Please review FIU’s web page about plagiarism (representing another’s work, ideas, expressions, or materials as your own), http://www2.fiu.edu/~oabp/misconductweb/5beaconlettertoallstudents.htm, and here http://www2.fiu.edu/~oabp/misconductweb/1acmisconductproc.htmto make yourself aware of the disciplinary sanctions resulting from academic misconduct. Print and sign the last page of the course syllabus and return to me by the third week of class.
