*Don't reveal where they get their information
*May only have access to limited information
*Don't have access to information behind firewalls (like library databases)
“The Policy on Academic Honesty assumes as a basic and minimum standard of conduct in academic matters that students be honest and that they submit for credit only the products of their own efforts.”
