Abstract

The essay addresses the increasing practice of plagiarism among undergraduates. The author notes that plagiarism is easy using the internet, and is also easy for professors to catch. He notes that his fellow professors are concerned by the casual acceptance of plagiarism as a way of life among students. He suggests not using too much energy in being outraged, but instead enjoying hunting for plagiarism. He recommends lecturing about it in class and threatening public humiliation of plagiarists.
