Confused?: You may find this PDF from the Library helpful if you don’t know what Plagiarism is, period.

Professor Schmerler’s Personal Plagiarism Statement

“I have a zero-tolerance policy for Plagiarism.

‘Essays.com,’ ‘Bartleby.com,’ Cliff Notes and similar sites and services can never be appropriated, in whole or in part, in any assignment. Rest assured that I will use a plagiarism checker (software) to root out copied material. Punishment is as follows:

You will get an “F” on the assignment in which you plagiarized. This is my gift to you. It sends a message that your plagiarism is mild and I am allowing you to continue as my student. If your plagiarism is severe, or you plagiarize a second time, I will not only give you an “F” on the assignment in question, but I will file an official report. This report will go on your record, and could eventually result in your expulsion from college.

Not knowing what constitutes plagiarism does not excuse you from sanction.”
