This is Policies for the GE Area V essay:

Plagiarism or a High Turnitin Score

• A “good” Turnitin score is below 4% — this signifies it is your thinking/work.
• ≥ 10% and ≤ 15%: A recommendation to improve
• > 15% and ≤ 24%: Notification of a significant issue, and requirement to fix and resubmit very promptly
• > 24%: Score a 0 and referred to GE instructor (Dr. Courand) … can lead to a formal University process … usually, the student can rewrite and score up to an 85%.

Students must produce their own work. Any use of ChatGPT, or similar technologies, is strictly disallowed. Any such paper will be scored a 0, and the case will be examined to determine additional penalties (up to and including formal notice to the University). [Students are advised to consider that the future, even more than the present, will reward creative, well-reasoned efforts. The only path to this is to practice at all times — to strive for clarity, insight, and effective expression in each action.]
