• Social life

Please note the following policies for MUS 121 regarding research writing: kand must include in-text citations and a Works Cited list, even if you use only the textbook. Either Chicago or MLA citation styles are acceptable for this assignment. Please particularly note the following guidelines:

• You must include a citation whenever you quote or paraphrase material from a source.
• Either Chicago (footnotes) or MLA (parenthetical references) styles are acceptable for this assignment.
• Both in-text references (footnotes or parenthetical references, depending on your citation style) and a final list of works cited (Bibliography or Works Cited) mustbe used. Simply listing sources at the end of the document is insufficient.
• Simply listing a URL (such as www.findresearchanswershere.com) is not a sufficient citation in a Works Cited or Bibliography list. Page author, title, and date accessed must also be included.
• If you directly copy from a source word for word, you mustenclose the copied words in quotation marks and, as when rewording an idea, include an in-text citation.
• Failure to properly cite sources is considered plagiarism, a serious academic offense.
• Flagrant plagiarism, such as directly copying material word-for-word from a website or any other source without quotation marks, will not be tolerated and will result in an automatic grade of zero.
