Should someone be expellled or fired for Plagerizing? I say yes. If someone has the nerve to take someones else's words, and then not get in trouble for its usage, I feel that brings a terriblenew ample to others that it is alright to comit Plagerizing.I have had my own experience with this. To be honest I had not ment to do what I did. That is why we need to be oh so careful on where we get our information, how we use it, and how to site it. After what happened I am now way more careful and try to strive to be as original with my words as possible. Though it may be easy, people who write and type for a living should recognize that if they decide to be lazy just to get the work done and copy someone else's words, the consequences will not be in their favor. As following... Being fired from your job because you plagerized is the right decision. From my experiences as well as others...please be careful in what you right. It's not worth the trouble.
P.S To my literary group. Sorry I wasn't there today! I was sick. Hope this isn't to late notice.
Choosing punishment is a long, complicated procedure. While many should be expelled or fired, those who did it accidentally shouldn't be. By saying that, you would also punish people like yourself, who made the mistake of being careless, too harshly.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Plagerism is very bad and one should be fired for such actions. Plagirism could be accidental though, and I'm sorry this happened to you.
