Why does academic integrity matter? Think about the following scenarios... (adapted from http://www.citewrite.qut.edu.au/academic_integrity/)

- You are injured playing football and the nurse who treats you bought her essays instead of writing them.
- She doesn’t know how to keep up with the latest research because she never learnt how to read the journals so she recommends old, outdated treatments.

- You are an engineer whose best friend was always better at doing assignments so you relied on her throughout college to help you.
- Now, two years out of college, you have been put in charge of a major project that could result in a big promotion.
- But you don’t know how to go about getting it done. You know how to memorise for exams but you don’t know how to solve problems.
