Journalism 478 Policy on Plagiarism:
|
The Journalism Department is committed to the highest standards of academic excellence and integrity. Plagiarism and other forms of cheating will not be tolerated. All work must be based on your own original writing and reporting. Anyone caught cheating will receive a failing grade in the class and be reported to the University for possible further disciplinary action. For further explanation of the behavior defined as cheating, and a more detailed discussion of disciplinary procedures, see pages 552-554 in the 2000/02 CSUN catalog. Please also remember that much of the information posted on the Internet is protected by U.S. copyright laws. Passing this information off as your own is a violation of CSUN's plagiarism policy, and carries the penalties outlined above. |
