“Plagiarism: Students must write their essays and assignments in their own words.<br />
Whenever students take an idea, or a passage from another author, they must<br />
acknowledge their debt both by using quotation marks where appropriate and by proper<br />
referencing such as footnotes or citations. Plagiarism is a major academic offence (see<br />
Scholastic Offence Policy in the Western Academic Calendar). All required papers may be<br />
subject to submission for textual similarity review to the commercial plagiarism detection<br />
software under license to the University for the detection of plagiarism. All papers<br />
submitted will be included as source documents in the reference database for the purpose<br />
of detecting plagiarism of papers subsequently submitted to the system. Use of the<br />
service is subject to the licensing agreement currently between the University of Western<br />
Ontario and Turnitin.com” (http://www.turnitin.com).<br />
“Scholastic offences are taken seriously and students are directed to read the<br />
appropriate policy, specifically, the definition of what constitutes a Scholastic Offence, at<br />
the following Web site: http://www.uwo.ca/univsec/handbook/appeals/scholoff.pdf”<br />
LAPTOPS:<br />
You are welcome to bring your laptop to class for the purpose of taking notes, and only for<br />
