Reply to comment by ThePerfectEmployee in LPT: Don't cite Wikipedia articles, but do use their sources. by codenamendgo
I was in the history department so research was kinda a big deal to us. However, other departments couldn't care less. I took a law class for my minor and the professor said he didn't care what we used for citations as long as at least one of them was from his own writings (which he so graciously provided and never bragged about 🙄). Junior and Senior level students were citing Wikipedia and random YouTube videos with absolutely no sources. Blew my mind.
I also had to teach my roommate how to find primary sources because she was a social work major and they just never thought to teach that to them.
