Plagiarism is a major problem in academia and there are many computer programmes available to teachers to check students’ work. Anyone caught plagiarising can be thrown out of a course and excluded from a university. One of the most recent famous offenders has been the German Defence Minister – Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg – who was found to have copied a large part of his Doctoral Thesis from the Internet. He has now been renamed “Baron zu Googleberg” – the minister for cut and paste. (by Prof. Simon Smith)
