[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would any student plagiarize knowingly  and how come the tutors helping with the essay did not see it or did not do anything about it?
[/quote]

1) Obviously, to get a better grade than s/he could earn on his or her own using his or her own words, language skills, reading comprehension, and/or effort level.

2) Are tutors supposed to have encyclopedic knowledge of every passage in every study guide? And the tutors helped with your son with the prep answers, but didn't take the actual test for your son, correct?? How could they control what he did during exam time?

OP, you seem like you're in denial. These things happen; just give your son a sternly worded talk about cheating and stop trying to blame everyone except him. The teacher, the administration, the tutors...come on. Your son is struggling in that class; he plagiarizes a lot; he needs to stop before he ruins his academic career. Very few schools will accept ignorance on his part as an excuse, and none will let you blame them instead of him.[/quote]
