Drink like Europeans

By Jacob Stewart and Jake Stewart · Monday, April 9,2007 12 a.m.

Death, taxes and student fees

By Alyson Brodsy · Monday, April 9,2007 12 a.m.

IU teaches its students from the second they walk into their first classes freshman year that in academic writing, if someone’s concepts and idea are used, they must be cited. When in doubt, cite!
