'''Plagiarism''' is the use of another person's words or ideas ''with the goal of deceiving readers into thinking the plagiarist originated the ideas and deserves credit for them.'' It is considered a very serious offense in the academic world, and students, professors and even college presidents are regularly punished for it.
