This is something I read on the micro website right now that I thought we should all keep in mind. Clearly I don't think it is anything we will have to worry about but I figured posting this wouldn't hurt.
USING OLD PROPOSALS-be very careful
Please do not use any text from older proposals. Even if you wrote a section for last year's proposal and have been assigned to write it again this year, please resist the temptation to include last year's work in this year's proposal. If your ideas are basically the same, find another way to present them. The best advice is to start from scratch - you'll be a lot safer. Copying from a previous proposal, for purposes of this program, is called plagiarism. We don't want you to get caught in that trap. Please be careful. If you feel you must include a small amount of previous text, cite it properly.
Why are we so strict about this?
Because this is an educational program, and each team should submit original work.
