Due to the conversation that occured in the meeting today, I thought we could add resources about the consequences of plagiarism together.

 

Here is one interesting article about the consequences of plagiarism that I found, that states:

"The average punishment for students found guilty of cheating at Yale is a two-semester suspension, Ms. Cutler says. The average punishment is the same at Ms. Viswanathan's institution, Harvard, where the plagiarism policy is outlined in a one-hour lecture during freshman orientation."

Here is another article, that states:

"Colleges and universities take plagiarism every bit as seriously as Baylor does, and they assume that students know, or should know, how to avoid it.  Students may be suspended or expelled from college for plagiarizing.  As the passage at left notes, they may also have their diplomas revoked after they have graduated."
