Oh for crying out loud.
We caught several plagiarists on the first paper in this class. It’s pretty standard to catch about 4-6 for every hundred students or so. The prof made a big stink in class. Usually that's all it takes to dissuade the other folks. Once you see a couple of folks fail out of class, they tend to either do your own work or at least become a little more creative in your copying.
So... I found another one in the batch of second papers. And it wasn't just a little fudging on the citations either. It was flat out word-for-word off an internet site. Jeeze. Have some pride folks! If you're going to risk scholastic life and limb, at least put some effort into your fraud! Cut 'n pasting and entire paragraph ain't cool.
Ah, off to job number two. Or three… I lose track…
