You should attribute all sources in papers you submit, and you should not present someone else's work as your own.

Plagiarism is bad and can get you into a lot of trouble with your teacher and school. Whenever using other sources you should also state the source where you got it from and it is not good to use other peoples writing as your own

Respect of one's intellectual property particularly in print media. Plagiarism is stealing ones property by pretending to be the source of something that wasnt.

I'm tempted to say "Over someone's shoulder."
The truth is that I view academic cheating of any sort as vile. Plagiarism, in particular, should carry a very stiff academic penalty -- like expulsion.

I think plagiarism is reprehensible. Anyone who lifts someone else's work as their own is a common thief and should be expelled.

When generating a research paper there's a very fine line between copying (word for word) from your research and including citations. Prefessors try to get you to generate a research paper using your own thoughts. It's really difficult when you must include someone's citation.
If they don't want you to plagarize then don't ask for citations.

If people want their stuff private, they should keep it that way. However I think it's only right that they get the credit they deserve. It's only right.
