Academic Honesty*
Come join the Writing Center for a short workshop to learn how to avoid the dreaded crime of plagiarism. We will review some of the most common traps leading to inadvertent plagiarism (that is, cheating when writing a paper, even when you didn’t mean to) and practice the methods of avoiding the problems. This workshop will briefly cover citation issues related to plagiarism, proper use of quotation marks, a little respect for private property, and temptations leading to plagiarized content. Given that plagiarism is a violation of the MCC Code of Conduct, it should be well worth anyone’s time to be absolutely certain to avoid it, and we’ll show you how easy it is in this workshop.
