Dear Colleagues
maybe this would be an issue that faculty could or should discuss - in the Senate? not in the fashion - "let's get them" but: prevention, consultation, support for faculty? What do you think - you could bring it up to Rob.
I am not sure waht others do - and I am not sure if anybody knows who does what on this campus.

Hi Achim,
I have not been consulted. I did bring formal charges against one student last Spring.
Best,
Janet Day

You probably all know that recently, our porvost has been asked by SUNY central to suppy data regarding cheating and related policies to SUNY. Did any of you get consulted?
I was on the committee that developed a questionnaire.

TBers,
Plagiarism and academic honesty have been repeating topics at Teaching Breakfast meetings. Below is an updated list of web resources for faculty and students on these important issues. As a reminder, the College subscribes to the Turnitin service (mentioned below). For more information about this service, please contact Jim Greenberg in the TLTC at x 2701.

The Web has made it easier to
identify and copy another's work,
and students at all levels must
understand that plagiarism is
a bad practice with potentially
dire consequences, both while
they are in school and throughout
their working career.
There are many tools now available
to help instructors spot plagiarism:
