A Note Concerning Plagiarism:
Plagiarism is extremely serious business, and no hint of plagiarism will be tolerated on student grant applications. Plagiarism by students at American universities often results in the students receiving a zero for plagiarized work, expulsion from the course, or more drastic action, such as expulsion from the university for a semester or more.
University students in America typically receive warnings concerning plagiarism and in many universities, students must sign an “academic integrity policy” (or something identified along those lines) in which they pledge, on their honor, not to plagiarize.
What is plagiarism? Here we quote from a typical warning, and this from the Clemson University Undergraduate Catalog and repeated on the Clemson University website:
“plagiarism is a form of academic dishonesty defined (in the Undergraduate Catalog) as ‘the intentional or unintentional copying of language, structure, or ideas of another and attributing the work to one’s own efforts’ (p. 29). The catalog also states that ‘when, in the opinion of a faculty member, there is evidence that a student has committed an act of academic dishonesty, the faculty member shall make a formal written charge of academic dishonest, including a description of the misconduct, to the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies.’” (p. 29).

Note how we have used this statement, taken directly from the Clemson University website:
1) The website is identified, below the material;
2) The material is quoted and the source identified;
3) To further note that the material is not our own, we have put it in a separate paragraph and put it in italics.
Please focus on this University’s definition of plagiarism: …“the intentional or unintentional copying of language, structure, or ideas of another and attributing the work to one’s own efforts.” “Copying,” especially copying and pasting from the web without attribution, is the biggest problem to be aware of. The issue is taking language out of the web and not citing it.
Using language judiciously from another source, such as a hard-copy book or online on the web, and using proper citation, is okay.
What then is proper citation? While this is a big and technical subject, the above material provides you, especially when read against the source, an example of the proper use of someone else’s material – in this case, Clemson University’s website. The simplest thing to say is this: when it’s someone else’s material, you may use it IF you put it in quotes and provide the source (the citation).
