Why Do We Bother with Citations?

Citing your sources can often feel frustrating but as frustrating as citations can feel, it's important to include them because citations are all about academic honesty.
  • One thing you should try to keep in mind is that academic honesty is not just about doing the right thing. Academic honesty is also a CUE requirement.  Not crediting your sources of information is a form of plagiarism.
