§ Do you understand Section 340.02 of the College Handbook – for which you are responsible?
§ What is acceptable paraphrasing and what is plagiarism?
§ If you cite your sources, does that cover your use of other writers’ words?
§ What are some strategies for avoiding accidental plagiarism?
§ Are the practices that were fine for Regents exams, and maybe high school classes, acceptable in college?
Hey class! Now I was just thinking about an activity that our class could do. We should all do Relay For Life. What better way to help out a great cause, than having a great time doing it. Relay for life is when teams of people walk laps for about 12 hours. People tent out after and make it such a great time, there’s food and a bunch of other things that make it definitiely worth while. All of this fun for a fantastic cause. It all goes towards research for cancer. If you are indeed interested, I have formed a team with my residence hall. (Cheney) So if you aren’t already on a team, or your dorm doesn’t offer one, feel free to join ours. There is a minimum of a ten dollar donation, and due to the fact that our team roster is due Monday (sorry about the short notice) I need to know as soon as possible. I think this is a great cause, and if we all go we can get to know each other that much better. There is also a kickoff party for it on Monday the 1st. Here is some more information about that:Check out a Relay for Life
