My Word!
Plagiarism and College Culture
SUSaN D. BLUm
“Cassroom Cheats Turn to Computers.” “Student Essas on InternetOer Chaenge to Teachers.” “Faing the Grade.” Headines suchas these have been baring the aarming news o an epidemic o pagiarism and cheating in American coeges: more than 75 percento students admit to having cheated; 68 percent admit to cutting andpasting materia rom the Internet without citation.Proessors are reminded amost dai that man o toda’s coegestudents operate under an entire new set o assumptions aboutoriginait and ethics. Practices that even a decade ago woud havebeen regarded amost universa as academica dishonest are nowcommonpace. Is this deveopment an indication o dramatic shitsin education and the arger cuture? In a boo that dismisses hand-wringing in avor o a rich account o how students actua thin andact, Susan D. Bum discovers two cutures that exist, oten uneasi,side b side in the cassroom.Reing extensive on interviews conducted b students with students,
My Word!
presents the voices o toda’s oung aduts as the museabout their dai activities, their chaenges, and the meanings o theircoege ives. Outcomes-based secondar education, the steep ris-ing cost o coege tuition, and an economic cimate in which highereducation is vaued or its eect on uture earnings above a ese:These actors each have a roe to pa in expaining wh students mightpursue good grades b an means necessar. These incentives havearisen in the same era as easi accessibe was to cheat eectronicaand with amost intoerabe pressures that resut in man studentsbeing diagnosed as cinica depressed during their transition romchidhood to aduthood.However, Bum suggests, the rea probem o academic dishonestarises primari rom a ac o communication between two distinctcutures within the universit setting. On one hand, proessors andadministrators regard pagiarism as a serious academic crime, anethica transgression, even a sin against an ethos o individuaism andoriginait. Students, on the other hand, reve in sharing, in mutipic-it, in accompishment at an cost. Athough this boo is unie toreassure readers who hope that increasing rates o pagiarism canbe reversed with strong worded warnings on the rst da o cass,
My Word!
opens a diaogue between proessors and their studentsthat ma ead to true mutua comprehension and serve as the basisor an aignment between student practices and their proessors’expectations.
“Susan D. Blum is genuinely interested inunderstanding her students and brings great care and compassion to her discus- sion o plagiarism. She generously draws on student interview segments throughout

to illuminate today’s campus climate.I especially like that Blum locates acts o cheating within the wider socioculturalcontext rather than regarding them simply as ailures o personal morality.”—Cathy Small,author o
