Academic Dishonesty:
Plagiarism  (and other forms of academic dishonesty) is a serious academic  crime.  It is wrong and I have no tolerance for it in any form no matter how mild: just don't do it.Please refer to the department web page on academic dishonesty:  http://www.usask.ca/philosophy/undergrad/honesty.html
