Note on Plagiarism: All research papers will be reviewed by a plagiarism detection service. Make sure you pay careful attention to summarizing, paraphrasing, and correctly citing your sources in-text and in the reference list. The academic standard, excluding bibliography and direct quoted material (which should be used very sparingly), is 25 percent. If you score higher than that in your plagiarism report you will have a chance to correct this issue in the final submission. If it is still higher that the norm on the final submission you will fail the research paper. Additionally, you cannot, and I stress cannot, use another paper you have completed for another class for this class.
