What is plagiarism?

Plagiarism is a form of academic dishonesty, just like cheating, and when you claim someone else's ideas and words as your own, you are stealing. No university that wants to maintain its academic integrity will allow cheaters and thieves to remain on its campus. DON'T BE A CHEATER AND A THIEF!
