Most importantly, many universities that adopt this book report a reduction in cheating and plagiarism on campus.For this second edition, Charles Lipson has updated hundreds of examples and included many new media sources. There is now a full chapter on how to take good notes and use them properly in papers. The extensive list of citation styles incorporates guidelines from the American Anthropological Association. The result is the definitive resource on academic integrity that students can use every day.

"Georgetown's entering class will discover that we actually have given them what we expect will be a very useful book, Doing Honest Work in CollegeIt will be one of the first things students see on their residence hall desks when they move in, and we hope they will realize how important the topic is." - James J. O'Donnell, Provost, Georgetown University "A useful book to keep on your reference shelf." - Bonita L. Wilcox, English Leadership Quarterly "In 2005 we ordered copies of Doing Honest Work in College for our entire incoming class. The experience for McGill has been so positive that we are repeating it again for next year.... I have found this past term that the number of plagiarism cases has decreased dramatically from the same period last year. In addition to giving students the information needed to avoid plagiarism, the distribution of the book has raised awareness of the importance of academic integrity." - Enrica Quaroni, Disciplinary Officer for the Faculty of Arts, McGill University"
