Tag Archives: imitation in literature

The first thing that came to mind when reading this article was that any one can be found guilty of plagiarism if they commit it, for example in here it’s Eugene Tobin, the ex president of Hamilton College. I’ve always known about the seriousness of plagiarism throughout my life as it was always discussed in my previous classes whenever I’ve had to do a research project. I completely agree with Isserman that plagiarism is wrong and unjustified because the person is taking someone else’s words and ideas as if it were their own and not giving the original source credit. In my opinion, I see plagiarism as a form of theft in all honesty.
