    A Statement on Plagiarism and Cheating

    The Modern Language Association Handbook for Writers of Research Papers defines plagiarism as:

    the act of using another person's ideas or expressions in your writing without acknowledging the source.

    Copying words or ideas from any source, including another student, constitutes academic 'theft', and may result in loss of marks for the assignment, loss of marks for the entire course, or even expulsion. The same penalties will result if a student is found guilty of cheating or contributing to cheating on any test, exam or assignment.

    Students should familiarize themselves with University of Winnipeg policy concerning plagiarism and academic honesty.
