While you maydiscuss the assignments with others in the class, collaboration on the preparation of a paper is notpermitted. Unless the assignment specifically directs otherwise, papers should be based entirelyon your own study of the assigned material and not on secondary sources of any kind.Turning in someone else's work, whether from printed sources or material availableelectronically, as if it were your own constitutes plagiarism.

The academic consequences of plagiarism range from failure for the taintedassignment to failure for the course, depending on the seriousness of the offense. All suchoffenses are reported to the college dean, who will impose additional administrativeconsequences, which can include suspension or expulsion from the university.Examples of plagiarism include, but are not limited to the following: turning in another student'spaper as if it were your own; collaboration with another student in writing the paper; quoting,paraphrasing, or borrowing ideas from published or unpublished material written by someoneother than yourself, without specific acknowledgment of the source.If you have any questions about what constitutes plagiarism, you should consult with your sectioninstructor.READ THIS: IT’S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW!UCSD Policy on Integrity of Scholarship:http://senate.ucsd.edu/manual/appendices/app2.htmHumanities I Uses TurnitinThe Humanities courses use Turnitin.com(tm) to review the textual similarity of submitted paperswith external sources.
