Code of Conduct and Definition of Plagiarism:

You'll find Academic Affairs policies on “Academic Dishonesty” and on "Unethical Practices" in the University Policies and Procedures web page at http://policies.cua.edu/ . You are held responsible for adhering to these policies. Incidences of academic dishonesty, defined by the University as “failure to observe rules of fairness in taking exams or writing papers, plagiarism, fabrication, and  cheating” will result in a grade of F (0 points) on the project or exam in question, and will be reported to the Dean for possible further action (including failure in the course).  

Plagiarism, which includes  "[1] intentionally or knowingly representing the words or ideas of another as one's own in any academic exercise; [2] failure to attribute any of the following: quotations, paraphrases, or borrowed information from print sources or websites; [3] buying completed papers from other to use as one's own work", will not be tolerated.  

For more on what constitutes plagiarism and how to avoid it, see the guide on the Purdue Online Writing Lab web site at http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/research/r_plagiar.html .
