Academic Integrity & Academic Writing Resources

Regis College's Academic Catalog has a section on Academic Integrity (starting on pg. 28). This provides detailed information on the use of secondary sources and collaborative learning. It discusses how to avoid all forms of academic dishonesty, including plagiarism.

For more help in understanding plagiarism and how to avoid it, make use of the following resources at Regis:

• Finucane and O'Sullivan Institute for Learning  Writing tutors work with all aspects of writing for undergraduate and graduate students in the traditional on-campus program at the Weston campus.

• Phrases, sentences, or sections of text that are copied word for word, but without quotes --  without acknowledging the source. 
• Paraphrasing or rephrasing other’s text or ideas and using it in your own material --  without acknowledging the original source.
• Combining text or ideas from a source, or from several different sources, with your own ideas -- without acknowledging the source(s).
