    My friend was once accused of plagiarism because one of those automated programs came back saying there was a match. It was his name. He has a very common first and last name. He went to plead his case to his teacher, and she wouldn’t even hear him out.

    I’m so glad I went to school before those things existed.

      Department heads can keep some of this bullshit in check. Professors aren’t the end all be all of your grade. They do have bosses.
