Plagiarism is a big deal. This new case at the University of Kansas wasn’t the first; The Kansas City Star, February 10, 2022

TIMOTHY MILLER, The Kansas City Star; Plagiarism is a big deal. This new case at the University of Kansas wasn’t the first

"The University of Kansas recently announced the resignation, under pressure, of its interim Vice Provost for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging D. A. Graham, who had held the position since December 2020. The message he sent to the university community to mark Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, as KU explained, “contained sentences similar or identical to those in a message written by Curtis L. Coy, Deputy Under Secretary for Economic Opportunity in the Veterans Benefits Administration, in 2015.” Provost Barbara Bichelmeyer called the termination “a consequence that befits the action.” KU, like universities everywhere, regards plagiarism as a cardinal academic sin."
