...She even plagiarized her fucking "I quit!" letter? Either she's doing it to troll, knowing she's rumbled, or she's really fucking stupid and lazy.

Yeah there's a debate about bachelor, master (and so on) thesis will be still required in the very near future because this kind of bullshit seems to be happening rather frequently as of late. I haven't heard of a fuck up similar to this, only about that Italian imbecile that she even lied on her results about her research on the subject of honesty! If I remember correctly I even posted on the Italy thread. Things is she was considered the best or one of the best in her field and think hundreds if not thousands used her manipulated data for their research.
I was furious because she likely damaged prospects for Italian folks that want and do research properly, if it was for me she would deserve a slap on the face and not the metaphorical one on the wrist she received.
Returning to Gay, I am surprised she hasn't tried to stay on longer, because people like her are like barnacles ... You remove them off only with an exterior force, otherwise they stay there until the elements take them off.
 
Of course, plagiarism these days can get very technical and *very* annoying if you have a professor who wants to get hyper nitpicky about things. You write your paper, cite all of the sources you actually use, and do as comprehensive of a literature review as you can to try to find any obscure source somewhere that might possibly use similar language to what you just wrote after the fact, go to submit the paper, and it turns out that a paper submitted to an obscure boutique journal on a topic with no actual relevance or relationship to your own that has literally never been cited by anybody else just so happens to have an identical phrase in it about something completely unrelated to what you used said phrase for and you are defending yourself against plagiarism charges.

Paper topic - The Battle of Cherbourg between USS Kearsarge and CSS Alabama during the US Civil War with a focus on the respective commanders, their previous careers, their writings, and how their backgrounds influenced the events of the battle.
The paper that had the 'plagiarized' content - was published in a vanity boutique pay-to-publish journal on women's studies and is about power relationships in lesbian erotic performance art. The offending phrase? "In the French port of Cherbourg in 1865..."

That's considered plagiarism by US standards? At best for that single phrase I could do is this. "In France's port of Cherbourg in 1865".

No, it's more like, that'll cause the tools they use to detect plagiarism to flag the work as plagiarism.

Then the teacher confronts the student, and they have to defend themselves from the accusation.

This wouldn't actually get the student punished, if they're any good at defending themselves, but they shouldn't have to defend themselves in this situation, regardless.
 
My professors know that certain things are going to get marked as plagiarism by the system and will often throw it out.
Like sources count as plagiarism
 


This had lead to a severe wake up call of some, such as Bill Ackman. He's not just against the antisemitism in Harvard, but it has broadened into full blown hatred at the racism of DEI, including against white people. The truth is winning.

Yeah I am kind worried where it could lead to considering what they are trying to do to Rumble because of supposed anti-Semitism and not just actual anti-semitism.
It won't involve me that much directly but still...I could still feel the ripple effect...
