Examples of Plagiarism:

• Copying and pasting words or phrases from an article without citing the source.
• Citing the wrong source.
• Copying a roommate's paper.
• Reusing a paper you submitted for another class.
• Buying a paper from a paper mill online.
• Entering your paper into a translator and using that to write your paper.
