Intellectual Honesty
Intellectual honesty is the cornerstone of scholarship and collegiate integrity. It requires that the contributions of others be acknowledged and cited. Beacon College demands intellectual honesty in all academic publications and projects.

Intellectual Honesty Policy: Students are responsible for the authorship of all their work. Broadly defined, plagiarism is representing another’s work as your own. Papers that show evidence of plagiarism on an assignment will receive a zero. Upon the second incident, the student will receive a zero for the work and be referred to Student Services for further action.

Citation Style for Research Papers
Citing is the process of giving credit to the sources used in writing your paper.
