Plagiarism

Plagiarism will not be tolerated. Plagiarism commonly occurs when the student utilizes an author’s words without properly attributing the source. All sources must be referenced. No cutting and pasting or copying is appropriate unless quoting. Purchasing papers of any form will result in automatic failure for the course and a recommendation for expulsion.

One group member must submit this assignment by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday of Module/Week 5.
