I recently submitted an assignment, and it was not accepted by my instructor because according to her it was completely plagiarized from the course manual. The point of the assignment was for the student to do their own analysis of the content and demonstrate that they have seen the connections. However, I personally reviewed two of my classmates essays, who had both scored quite high marks.

They had transcribed entire sections from the text, and were each rewarded with a near perfect score; One of the students openly claimed that he did not contribute even one original thought in his assignment. Yet, when I did the same I was punished for it. Why?

Are these the standard policies and procedures that our educational institutions enforce to actively promote and advance the status for (supposed) minority or disadvantaged students?

I've never had that problem. If you don't cite properly, expect the instructor to notice.

Apparently they didn't teach you spelling, either. Attention: REGISTER / LOGIN to view the image!

If you copy and don't cite, you're a cheat, end of story. I work hard for my grades an I don't appreciate students getting better marks than me because they cut and paste sections from a textbook. If you cheated and you knew you were cheating you deserve everything you get.

Give me the names of your friends and I'll have Langara review their essays too.

Well I did cite my sources. Perhaps my references were not good enough for my instructor.

As for me giving the names of my friends or classmates so YOU can rat on them and have Langara review their essays. Forget it!

WHO THE F.U.C.K. ARE YOU ANYWAYS? I don't know if you're a guy or not, but if you told me that to my face I'd knock a few of your teeth out you f.u.ck.ing C.U.N.T!

You sound like a little mama's boy.

There's nothing worse than a rat
