Students get catalogues, pay money for papers and the academic world pretends it's not there. I'm putting the cards on the table. Sahr argues that students won't use his web site to cheat in school because it is too easy for professors to check what essays are on the site. Who we're dealing with now in terms of college students in the U.S., Canada and the rest of the world are adults. So if society prepares us correctly, we shouldn't have a problem.
Some professors are skeptical.
The intention is quite plain. Andrew Draskoy, a systems administrator at Memorial, agrees that plagiarizing from web sites is risky. It is presumably just as easy for the professor to find the paper as it is for the student. If you pass off something wholesale as your own, the thing is it's still sitting there on the 'net. One day somebody else besides you is going to find it, and the chance that somebody is going to notice that it's exactly the same as your own paper is considerable.
