"I
didn't mean it!" Does Not Excuse Plagiarism
Both intentional and unintentional
plagiarism are violations of the University's Academic Conduct Code and
are unethical and dishonest.
Unintentional plagiarism because
you do not know how to cite a reference (e.g., "It was on a website so
I thought it was free!") or carelessness in note-taking or when "cutting
and pasting" do not excuse plagiarism.
