$300 Answer for Cat 1: $300 Q Category 1: $300 d. All of the above and more! Students tell us that this is one way in which college is different than high school; if you don't know what is acceptable or how to properly cite resources, ask and learn! Inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated and the stakes can be very high. © David A. Occhino Board
