Plagiarism as an Ethical Dilemma at the United States Army Sergeants Major Academy

Abstract

Plagiarism at any academic institution is illegal. At the United States Army Sergeants Majors Academy it is also an unethical act which violates the schools honor code. I realize that everyone who commits plagiarism is not aware they are breaking the rules. These are the individuals who just need to be educated on the rules regarding the standards of writing. The problem for me arises from those students who know the rules and deliberately choose to disobey. These Sergeants Majors are the ones who are teetering on that ethical line, and these are the Soldiers whom I discuss in my paper.
