Judgement day Friday, Feb. 8, 2013

[gilardino]

Is James back?

Will we know Friday?

Will the drama continue?


I personally know the Southerland's, hope this works out.

I have a colleague who used to teach at SU and she said there is a computer program that profs use to scan papers and check for anomalies that can indicate cheating. She said they made such a big deal about it that it made her anxious and she decided not to teach there the next year. So, yes, if one paragraph looks odd it is flagged by the program and then the prof needs to talk to the student about it. It is up to the prof to decide if the computer was right.

I don't think any of us are sure what the meeting on Friday is about. Is it an appeal of a verdict already rendered? Was he given a chance to make something right, and now he will be told if it was right enough? Oy!

Seems like he very likely cheated. Why does everyone want him back so badly? I sorta don't mind justice being served here if he did cheat. And how likely is it that this is all a huge mistake? (Not very people).

over/under on how long this thread remains in existence?

yep, I'm sure you know all the facts

I don't with someone that cheated. I am sure he cheated? No. I do think it's likely though.

He's a dukie. Of course he doesn't want him back.

Yea, I think it's more likely his paragraph got flagged by a complete fluke..naivete is strong.

My wife uses that program, or one like it, where she teaches. It does done form of pattern recognition.

From her and her colleagues I hear caught cheating stories all the time. I'm surprised the ones at SU drag out like they do. Seems one could get to the bottom of it in a week or so.

Southerland is getting a raw deal here. bottom line. poor kid is just the sacrificial lamb and it's BS

Other people do it, therefore it's OK! Genius!

lets say melo cheated. you would have preferred him get suspended for the season as opposed to leading us to a championship?

Perhaps it's better that one man goes down...

Yea. if melo was guilty of plagiarizing i'd prefer to see justice served. I actually think that's a reasonable outlook to have on life. College classes are graded on a curve and therefore cheating adversely affects the other students that are doing it the right way. I don't think my view is really that insane or outlandish actually.

Serious question, how old are you?
