Can we talk about plagiarism for a moment? It cost Monica Crowley her job in the Trump administration, and this week, Slate online published a piecedetailing the many ways the Trump administration has copied, borrowed, or outright lifted from other sources.
Foreign policy writer and professor Dan Drezner says there is a danger that students are going to think that plagiarism doesn't matter anymore. We talk about why it does -- and how teachers and professors are getting better at sniffing it out. Our guests:
- Dr. M. Elizabeth Thorpe, assistant professor of communications at the College at Brockport
- Dr. Beth Jörgensen, professor of Spanish and chair of the Board on Academic Honesty at the University of Rochester
- Dr. Rachel Remmel, academic honesty liaison and instructional development specialist in the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning at the University of Rochester
