Essay Ideas
I am in between a couple ideas for my essay. I enjoy reading realistic fiction, so I was thinking I might write an informational essay on the authors Sara Gruen or Jane Austen. On the other hand, I am really interested in John Hughes movies. So I am going to bounce around some ideas for each paper and then decide; however, if you have some input let me know!

Citations in majors
I am a Math education major, so I do not really use citation; however, if I do it will most likely be in APA style.
When I hear 'citation' I think about giving credit to the people who originally came up with the idea/concept. Giving credit to those who deserve it, I believe, is necessary and if you do not then its plagiarism. Even coping someone's homework is a form of plagiarism because the person coping is not doing the work. However, I do not feel like people should get in trouble if they accidentally plagiarism.
