Graduation Speech: Tragic Reference Symbology

Decent Essays
Good afternoon. This is Leslie Moore from PSY 420 online.

Sorry about my Profile paper. It was not up to par. I am not going to argue over anything. Although I did upload the wrong copy (I know, you hear that all the time) because I was at work and got home just in the nick of time to get it uploaded, and I just clicked on the wrong file name. But, that is my own error, and not your problem.

However, the edited copy would not have has (as many) typos or that horrific reference citation. How embarrassing! I download citations into my document and then go back in and manually make sure they are APA. That is why it was so different than the other citations. It is correct on the final edited copy of the paper. I would like to think you know

    “Effectively, we’ve treated the average wage premium as if it were a guarantee and then we’ve encouraged college students to borrow against it” (2012).” I wanted to directly quote this information from the article to use it on my assignment to help me explain something.

    When I was notified of the inadvertent ethical violation, I was mortified. Not because of any consequence necessarily, but because of the mere idea that my integrity or moral beliefs would be questioned. I did not mean to imply that those ideas belonged to anyone besides who I cited, albeit incorrectly. I could not believe that I allowed myself to make such a simple but catastrophic mistake. How is it that I came to the decision that the reference should be cited it parenthesis when clearly it should have been quoted?…
