“My classes stress the interconnectedness of knowledge. A recent Fulbright fellowship provided the opportunity to work with undergraduate and graduate students at Kyoto Seika University in Japan. My teaching at Colby-Sawyer College is enhanced thanks to this experience.”
Fine and Performing Arts Professor Jon Keenan

Plagiarism is the submission of material as one's own work that is not the result
of one's own effort. It is the use or imitation of the work of another author or artist
and the representation of the work as one's own. Examples include these situations:
1. Quoting paragraphs, sentences or parts of sentences from other sources without
the use of quotation marks and without the use of citations. Sources include but
are not limited to the following:
• Printed sources such as books, essays, or articles
• Video and audio sources, such as taped interviews or television programs
• Papers, videotapes, and audiotapes by other students
• Electronic sources such as Internet, World Wide Web, and CD-ROM
2. Paraphrasing pages, paragraphs, or sentences without acknowledging the source
3. Using other people's ideas without giving them credit
4. Writing a paper based on outside sources without using footnotes and a complete
bibliography

all courses.
