A student who admits down-loading material from the internet for his degree plans to sue his university for negligence. Michael Gunn claims his university should have warned him his actions were against the regulations.The Times Higher Education Supplement reports that he was told on the eve of his final exams that he would get no marks for his course work.
The University of Kent at Canterbury says students are warned about plagiarism.
Michael Gunn, a 21-year-old English student, told the Times Higher: "I hold my hands up. I did plagiarise. I never dreamt it was a problem.
I think cheating and plagiarism are pretty common, I know I was warned about it all the time in College. Having lived in England mingling with English University students, I know they were warned as well. He's just mad 'cause they let him pay all that money and then booted him.
What's so wrong with doing the work yourself? Isn't that what your supposed to do in University? If he wins, college will have become worthless.
