Dear college students:

Instructors should not have to stipulate to you that you need to cite in-text. If you use an outside source or idea and you fail to cite it, you are plagiarizing, plain and simple. It’s in every university’s Honor Code, I guarantee you. This is not something that needs to appear in every syllabus in order to hold you accountable. When you enter a college environment, you provide citation on every paper you write that requires the use of ideas from sources other than yourself. That’s how academic writing works. When you agree to attend a college, you agree to abide by it’s Honor Code. This is part of the Honor Code. Please stop acting like instructors are evil for taking off points when you fail to cite, whether it appears explicitly in the syllabus or not.

This has to do with the reading and what we have been talking about in class because citations are very important which is what we have been discussing.

This guy says a lot of what many instructors feel. You cite what find, and it is that simple. If you don't then you are not doing your job.

MLA (Modern Language Association) style is most commonly used to write papers and cite sources within the liberal arts and humanities. This resource, updated to reflect the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers (7th ed.) and the MLA Style Manual and Guide to Scholarly Publishing (3rd ed.), offers examples for the general format of MLA research papers, in-text citations, endnotes/footnotes, and the Works Cited page.

The is the OWL at Purdue website. This is a great resource for writing papers and documenting sources.

There are three rules.

1. If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it. 

2. If you do not ask, the answer will always be no. 

3. If you do not step forward, you will remain in the same place.

Land of opportunity

Although slaves primarily came into America for a chance at a better life, they ended up helping the economy through trade, specialization, and cheap labor and by spreading culture by having different countries associate with each other and interact like never before.

“Advertising is a phenomenon of the modern age” 

This says to me that we now live in a time where companies see us as dollar signs and not to sell a product that will improve our life, but to get us to buy what they want us to no matter the cost to the consumer.
