I am also aware of the time constraints and personal life issues of today's busy college student, along with the temptation to "cut corners" in order to meet deadlines. But beware, any student who plagiarizes, whether it be an idea, written passage, and an entire answer, will receive a failing grade for the entire assignment. Please refer to Post Plagiarism Policy.
