Plagiarism Tutorial

Introduction:
Plagiarism, which is a form of Academic Dishonesty, is a serious issue on university campuses, including Our Lady of the Lake University. The penalties for plagiarism can be devastating to the student who is caught, ranging from the grade of "F" on an assignment, to a failing grade for the course, to expulsion from the university, depending upon the severity of the offense. Therefore, we at the Sister Elizabeth Anne Sueltenfuss Library have created this plagiarism page, which includes a plagiarism tutorial, links to plagiarism stories in the news, and a link to the CQ Researcher's special edition on plagiarism, in order to help students recognize what constitutes plagiarism, what the ramifications of plagiarizing can be, and how to avoid even unintentional plagiarism.
