Quote from Grandluxe:

I dont even know why I am responding, but no positions so why not?

I am well aware of what plagiarism is. I am gonna take a wild guess and say you are either not American or are American but not born in the west. This is not some authoritarian shithole country where the secret police is gonna come taser you in the nutsack because you didnt do something your mummy told you word for word. This is not fucking Cuba or whatever shithole police state. This is not an academic paper,it's a public forum for god's sake.

Get rid of your old cultural mentality dude, you are in America now, You are safe.

you're wrong on where I was born, or where I live. I'm an American, just as you. I just believe in giving people the credit when they produce something. The OP of yours gave the impression you came up with that witty remark, when in actuality, you copied it word for word.
 
Quote from Covertibility:

Do professors when keeping a student's paper, after they've asked for permission from the student, ever acknowledge that they derived a publication from the student's paper?? I can remember at least 2 papers of my were kept, everything was quoted and cited in it, but I'm kind of wondering what they do with those things.

if they don't, and they use a student (or someone else's) comments in their published papers, I'm pretty sure they can be sued.
 
Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.

And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.

Grandluxe, Tsing Tao took you to task for quoting without attribution. This is plagiarism! And it is even more important in a public forum than in an academic one. And in my mind, and many others I might add, this is a serious transgression, at minimum. It is a simple matter of integrity. Integrity, once lost, is very hard, if not impossible, to regain.

They can't quote their student's writing, or any one else's, directly without attribution. Academicians can be fired for this, even if tenured.

Professor's sometimes ask if they can retain copies of a student's work, mainly because there are occasions when a professor is asked to produce examples of student work. They may retain copies of either especially good or especially bad work for different, but legitimate, reasons.
