Abraham Verghese Comes to Alemany Library
One Book, One Marin Reception in our Reading Room
Wednesday evening, Archbishop Alemany Library welcomed Abraham Verghese and the One Book, One Marin committee, sponsors and guests for a reception prior to the culminating event for One Book, One Marin at Dominican University. Abraham Verghese, author of Cutting for Stone, conversed with Michael Krasney to a full house at Angelico Hall (over 800 people in attendance). In conversation with Michael Krasney, Verghese spoke eloquently about his book, writing the novel and the story, and his values as a practicing physician. Quite an inspiring night.

Poetry Reading
Wednesday afternoon, Alemany Library was privileged to welcome three outstanding poets to a noontime reading. Elizabeth Pode read one of her delightful poems and she is also a student here at Dominican University. Keith Ekiss, who teaches at Stanford University, read from his published book, Pima Road Notebook. He gave inspiring insight into the people and geography of Arizona where he grew up. And Indigo Moor read from his award winning book Through the Stonecutter's Window which won the Cave Canem-Northwestern University Press Poetry Prize. "Always in motion, Moor's polyrhythmic lines are choreographed to make sense of all that is most elusive in meaning: music, violence, love, anger, and desire." In all, a wonderful afternoon.
Plagiarism Goes Social
Originally published in The Chronicle of Higher Education: Wired Campus
Plagiarism Goes Social:
Plagiarism Goes Social:
The Web is going social. And now it seems that plagiarism might be heading that way, too.
A new study found that social and user-generated Web sites are the most popular sources for student copying. Academic sites come in second, while paper mills and cheat sites are third.A report on the findings was released today by iParadigms, creator of Turnitin, a popular plagiarism-detection service that takes uploaded student papers and checks them against various databases to pinpoint unoriginal content. For its study, the company analyzed 40 million papers submitted by high school and college students over a 10-month period.
“It shows that plagiarism in sourcing work is going the way that everything else in the world is going,” says Chris Harrick, vice president of marketing at Turnitin. “People are relying more on their peers than on experts.”But the findings come with a big caveat: Turnitin detects “matched content,” not necessarily plagiarism. In other words, the software will flag material from a paper mill, but it will also flag legitimate stuff that is properly cited and attributed. The company leaves it up to individual professors to determine plagiarism. So there’s no way to know exactly how much of the copying highlighted in this study, outside of the material that matches content from shady sites, is actually cheating.
That said, the enormous size of Turnitin’s database still makes the following numbers pretty interesting:- One-third of all “matched content” comes from social-networking and content-sharing sites like Facebook, Myspace, Scribd, SlideShare, Yahoo Answers, and Answers.com
- Legitimate education sites account for one-quarter of all copying. Popular sources included the National Institutes of Health site, www.nih.gov; MedLibrary.org; and test-prep and homework-help sites like Course Hero and BookRags.
- To researchers’ surprise, paper mills and cheat sites accounted for only 15 percent of matches. In this category, Turnitin includes sites like OPPapers.com and Allfreepapers.com.
- Over all, the top eight sites for matched content were Wikipedia, Yahoo Answers, Answers.com, SlideShare, OPPapers.com, Scribd, Course Hero, and MedLibrary.org
