Plagiarism Policy

The definition of plagiarism is: copying or imitating the language, ideas, or thoughts of another writer and passing them off as your own original work. Students who submit plagiarized work will be required to complete Plagiarism Training with their Learning Coach. Plagiarized work will not be accepted for credit and must be resubmitted. Students who submit plagiarized work may be placed on a Success Plan.

Examples of plagiarism can be, but are not limited to:

• Copying or rephrasing another student's work.
• Taking material from Internet sources and using it as your own, even if some words are changed.
• Having someone other than the student write an assignment.
• Direct or indirect reproduction of student aids, critical sources, or reference materials, in part or in whole, without citing sources.
