While all students sign the honor code, there are still specific skills most students need to master over time in order to correctly cite sources, especially in this new age of internet; as well as deal with the stress and strain of college life without resorting to cheating. Please know that your professor will notice instances of cheating on exams or plagiarizing on papers. See honorcode.byu.edu for specific examples of intentional, inadvertent plagiarism, fabrication, and falsification.
