Professor fed up with poor quality of cheating

Posted by tywebb on June 17, 2006 - 12:30 PM

The worst kind of cheating is the kind that implies your teacher is a moron, says one college professor via his blog. With this in mind, he gives several great tips for bringing your plagiarism up to par, including:

• Borrow from someone who writes as badly as you do.

• Edit out British spellings when you copy from British authors.

• Don't plagiarize from the teacher.

Kids -- be sure to bookmark this entry and remember it when you return to school this fall.

Cheating by students is bad. But how many times worse is cheating by administrators, especially when elementary-level students are the ones cheated?

Such is the case at Greenbrier Elementary from which embattled Jon PIKE has been removed as principal by central office personnel in the face of enormous parental and staff support.

What's up? Find out Monday, 6/26, at a board meeting to be held at the new BOE building on Hereford Farm Road.

My bet is that the former Marine is NOT going without a FIGHT.

Jon Pike was an outstanding principal. The community should stop and take a look at why these three or four teachers are so outraged when his approval rating in a September Evaluation was 94%. He ran a great school. Some of the teachers are truly trouble makers. Many of them were the same ones that got rid of Mr. Henderson. These trouble making teachers were the ones that have made the school environment so bad. The faculty will not come together until these teachers are removed. The entire faculty knows who they are because two of them walked out and left two classrooms of children. They became upset and left school for the day telling no one. Did they suffer any consequences for leaving 40-50 children unsupervised? No. Absolutely no consequences. This is child neglect. Let's talk about ethics. Does the board have any ethics to allow this to happen?
