Even through this is better than any television soap opera, I'm sorry that you have to deal with this, Anthroid.

Hey Sexy Anthropologist Honey Babe,
Do the penalties get worse and worse the more a student/the student's parents fight the decision? Remind me to suggest that at the next faculty senate meeting. Plagiarize a paper= Fail the class, appeal the charge unsuccessfully=expulsion, take it to the courts=attorney's fees....

I like it. I think each unsuccessful appeal should have a more extreme consequence. This level--at the department level--should involve expulsion. When she appeals to the Dean (and we all know she will), and that fails (and it will), there should be a bill introduced in the state legislature named after her criminalizing this particular kind of stupidity (I work at a state U). When she appeals to the Provost (and we all know she will), and that fails (and it will), she should be forced to work off the costs of everything I've spent (copying charges, an hourly rate calculated from my yearly salary...no, wait, don't do that. Given how much I work, it'll be below minimum wage) and everything spent by the good people of this state defending against this student's hubris. Public humilation and paying back the taxpayers are probably the best ways to go. Can we add a public whipping in there somewhere?
No?
Darn! ;)

I can't wait until Thursday!!!
What time should we check in? I have to run a few errands, and I am seriously considering planning them around the timing of your post.

You are magnificent Anthroid! The faculty in your department must love you, knowing that you are fighting this good fight on their behalf (and on behalf of Truth, Justice, etc.).

Aw shucks. Thanks, edwidge.
As for reports back...so that the Great Report Debacle of the first meeting is avoided:
The meeting is to begin tomorrow at 3:30 p.m. EDT. I have no idea how long it will take; I'm assuming at least an hour, if not longer. I will do my very best to post a brief communique when the meeting ends and a longer story later in the evening--if I am able to!
As I write this, my administrative assistant is almost done assembling the Big Black Binders O'Doom; I have alphabetic AND numeric dividers, AND an index of exhibits. I will go through each binder when my admin. ass't is done and pinpoint the paragraphs plagiarized with the actual website paragraphs. The Binders O'Doom will look very scary.
Loins are girded, jaws are squared, spines are stiffened.
Let the games begin!

I still can't get past thinking "Sweet Lord, how much time, energy and department resources has this one idiot kid taken?"
Anyone remember the good ole days of scholarship and teaching?

It's ridiculous the amount of time suckage these things can take - time that could be better spent on the good students, or making a good department better! Not this crap. I think the Sleazy-Slacker Family hope our Mighty Anthroid will be worn down by all their protestations... little do they know she'll be armed with the Big Black Binders of Doom! Anyone remember the good ole days of scholarship and teaching?
You mean the days when education was a privilege for those who sought to engage it? I do... but it was so long ago, in a galaxy far, far away (or so it seems) O. |
