Plagiarism

“The big secret in life is that there is no big secret.  Whatever your goal, you can get there if you’re willing to work.”                                    -Oprah Winfrey Plagiarism is academic theft.  It is using someone else's words, ideas or research data, and presenting them as your own.  Plagiarism is cheating and is a serious offense. Students must always acknowledge, document and cite the sources they have used in preparing research assignments.  Whenever in doubt, consult your teacher.
