In their book, The Craft of Research (University of Chicago Press, 1995), Booth, Colomb,
and Williams state:

"You plagiarize when, intentionally or not, you use someone else's words or ideas but fail
to credit that person. You plagiarize even when you do credit the author but use his exact
words without so indicating with quotation marks or block indentation. You also plagiarize
when you use words so close to those in your source, that if you placed your work next
to the source, you would see that you could not have written what you did without
the source at your elbow" (p. 167).

Please read the above paragraph carefully. It is my policy to significantly mark down
the grade of any paper in which I detect plagiarism. In light of other institutions' policies
on plagiarism, this is a mild response.
