He announced yesterday via Twitter/X plans to investigate every professor at MIT for plagiarism.

And Sally thought she dodged the bullet. [/quote]

If they did not plagiarize public documents they published, they have nothing whatsoever to fear,

Right? [/quote]

+1[/quote]

No it was about not being pro Israel enough. You can never be pro Israel enough. Plagiarism is okay for Ackman’s wife but not for a non Jew in a position of power at an Ivy League. We can look at the example of Yale.[/quote]

So you think plagiarism is alright? No big deal?[/quote]

Well, Ackman seems to thinks plagiarism is alright and no big deal - in certain circumstances, of course. Since he's holding the pitchfork and torch, can we just apply his own shaky methods and deem it OK for those we like, but not OK for those we don't care for?[/quote]

PP here. That's not what I asked. I asked if you think plagiarism is alright. Do you work at Harvard?  Harvard should care if anyone attending/instructing there or leading their institution plagiarizes.[/quote]

Obviously you want to find a convenient, tidy justification for the unhinged witch hunt that buffoon went on for absurdly transparent reasons that had nothing to do with academic integrity.[/quote]

Obviously, you think plagiarizing other people's work is acceptable. [/quote]

Just following Ackman’s lead.[/quote]

If you think plagiarism is wrong and dishonest, then you wouldn't follow anyone's lead -- whether it be Ackman, Trump, or anyone else.[/quote]

[b]Characterizing what Gay did as plagiarism is laughably absurd.[/b]

Now what Oxman did, and who she associated with?[/quote]

Really? When I was in college, we had an honor code. Copying paragraphs was viewed as cheating/plagiarism and worthy of expulsion.[/quote]

Except Gay didn't copy paragraphs, or copy anything. She neglected to insert quotation marks, making no effort to represent the words as her own. But carry on with the propaganda campaign because she did, after all, fail to bow down and cower before the sacred cow. And for that, maybe she should have been made to pay an even greater price, right? Right?[/quote]

Sure. Just a few quotation marks, footnotes, and citations are missing -- that's all!

[/quote]

Code of the Road[/quote]

She was the President of Harvard.[/quote]

I'm less moved by that fact than I am by the fact that the wife of the clown who led the Gay witch hunt has been found to be an even more egregious plagiarizer.

Sometimes, the universe DOES provide.[/quote]

There was a time when this forum would have exploded over someone blaming the wife of the man who did something. Wonder what is different in this case.[/quote]

Double standards on full display.[/quote]

Would that Republicans had standards at all.[/quote]
