There is no question that all external sources but your ideas and thoughts have to be properly quoted in your work. In 2019, Diamond Rodriguez used a picture of a wooden floor in her work that was not taken by her, without properly giving a credit to the author. This caused her to be dumped from the entire course, and because she failed the course, she did not receive 2 credits, which brought another problem – she was not able to graduate.
You can find more information about this heated problem which led to several marches and protests at this link or here.

- Do you think the professor acted right?
- Would it be fair to let her re-submit the work with a precise citation?
