Would any of you like to read the movie review six of my students turned in to me last week? You would? Okay.
Just go here. https://us.imdb.com/title/tt0120338/usercomments
Am I upset? Yes. Very. At this level, I have to turn them all in for plagiarism. The usual penalty is expulsion from the college.
And we just had yet another lecture about plagiarism a few weeks ago. They KNOW what it is.
Even when they call it ‘calligraphy,’ they know what it is. (That was today. Sigh.)
And no, I don’t want any papers turned in, done in calligraphy, either.
Why did they do it? Why?
Were they just that desperate, or did they really think I wouldn’t notice?
For whatever reason, they did it, and now it’s out of my hands.
It was a really poorly written review, too. Not that they would know that.
