Plagiarism!

At this point in our research paper journey MOST of you (and by most, I mean 99.9%) should have read AT LEAST one book and/or gathered a decent amount of information about your topic. It's time to start cataloging your sources and expanding your information search. As your search widens and your knowledge grows, it's incredibly important to keep track of ideas, theories, statistics, etc..
This is NOT a project that can be completed in a week, a weekend, or over the course of a very long night. You MUST commit to this as the guiding project of your 2nd quarter English class and understand that it is a requirement for this course as a whole.

That being said, we need to be EXTREMELY CLEAR about the seriousness of ORIGINAL THOUGHT... and the unethical practice of PLAGIARISM.

Study Like a Scholar!
