1. If I didn't mean to plagiarize (unintentional plagiarism), then I won't receive any negative consequences. (True/False) 2. The most severe possible consequence of academic dishonesty is failing the class. (True/False)

Answer

1. False: Intent does not excuse plagiarism. Even if accidental, students are responsible for maintaining academic integrity and can face consequences such as point deductions, failing the assignment, or mandatory training. 2. False: While failing a class is a common outcome, more severe consequences exist for academic dishonesty. Depending on the institution's policy and the severity of the offense, consequences can include academic probation, suspension, permanent expulsion from the university, or the revocation of a previously awarded degree.
