Document Summary
File formal charges go to board of officials (usually honor council of students) Almost 19 duke student suspensions due to plagiarism. Intent does not matter: the defense cannot be i did not know . Need to know how to avoid this. ** when in doubt, cite it out: may not be able to separate own ideas from old ideas of other authors in notes, go back to source to ensure. Ensure source citations are correct (authors/pages correlated to the right quotes) Do not directly copy the integration of quotes that someone else employed. Do not exclude a portion of quote without ellipses: can misrepresent someone else"s work, could change meaning of passage. Have original quote present with quotations/page number/citation: removing quote from body of text helps prevent summarizing others" works without applying own ideas. Color-code other authors: see how much you contribute vs how much is simply compilation.
