Writing/Citing Guide 

The tabs above include suggestions for bibliographic citations, footnotes, and parenthetical citations. When a department has indicated a preference for a particular style, it has been noted. Other suggestions may be found in the Statement on Plagiarism and A Guide to Source Acknowledgements (1987) published by the College.

The requirements and preferences of your instructor always take precedence over the suggestions in this guide.
