Giving Credit Where Credit is Due
A research paper is a kind of conversation. You are engaging others in a dialogue that's taking place in their absence. So, to recognize others' contributions to the discussion and to allow anyone reading your paper to join in this exchange of ideas, you need to acknowledge where you found their thoughts.
Moreover, when you take ideas and pass them off as your own, it's theft; you are stealing their intellectual property, in other words, plagiarizing. This is one of the worst crimes that you can commit in an academic community and it violates the University Honor Code, which, upon entering SMU, you have already signed a pledge to uphold.
Many of our databases will generate a citation for you. Ask a librarian (call, chat, email) if you would like to learn if the database you're using can do this.
