Student plagiarizes paper. Denies it emphatically and swears I am wrong and that I must believe him. I prove he's a liar after 4 emails swearing it is his work. No more emails.

Just 0 the assignment or harsher penalty for lying about it?

ETA: better yet, give her an "I" for incomplete and watch her tops get thrown out of whack for.

That shite happened to me.

If you are at the post-secondary level, report to academic affairs.

If high school call the parents.

0 the paper. Give them a chance to redeem themselves and try and raise their average.

What would you have done if they admitted it? Give them a 0 or allow them to redo it for less credit?

When I was in law school our honor board had a girl plagiarize an academic paper. They intended to let her take a hit and give her a road to recover. She blatantly and repeatedly lied and concocted ridiculous shite to excuse her cheating and lying.

They absolutely crushed her and pretty much ruined her future in law.

FINISH HIM

The fact he didnt come clean and you had to spend time means zero and referral to the Dean.

Happened earlier this semester to a kid in my class. What's shitty is its a really respectable graduate program and we're kind of held to a higher standard. He didn't deny it or anything. Lost his scholarship. F in course and ultimately out the program because an F in this gets you booted. Hell two C's get you booted.

Kids are idiots these days.

If he was smart, he would have dusted off some old encyclopedias and plagiarized from there.
