SAN ANTONIO (AP) - The goal was an honor code that discouragedcheating and plagiarizing.
But the wording in a draft by students at the University of
Texas at San Antonio appears to match Brigham Young University's
code -- without proper attribution.
The student in charge of the honor code project says it was an
oversight; he plans to include proper citation and attribution when
the draft is submitted to the faculty senate.
Cheating experts say the case illustrates a sloppiness among
Internet-era students who don't know how to cite sources properly
and think of their computers as cut-and-paste machines.
