Online,“everything can belong to you really easily.“A University of Notre Dame anthropologist,Susan D. Blum, disturbed by the high rates of reported plagiarism, set out to understand ho

9、w students view authorship and the written word,or “texts“ in Ms. Blums academic language.She conducted her ethnographic (人种学的) research among 234 Notre Dame undergraduates. “Todays students stand at the crossroads of a new way of conceiving texts and the people who create them and who quote them.“

10、she wrote last year in the book My Word !:Plagiarism and College Culture ,published by Cornell University Press.Ms.Blum argued that student writing exhibits some of the same qualities of pastiche (模仿作品) that drive other creative endeavors today-TV shows that constantly reference other shows or rap m

11、usic that samples from earlier songs.She maintains that undergraduates are less interested in cultivating a unique and authentic identity-as their 1960s counterparts were-than in trying on many different personas, which the Web enables with social networking.“If you are not so worried about presenti

16、 said Ms. Wilensky, who took aim at Ms. Hegemann in a column in her student newspaper headlined Generation Plagiarism.“It may be increasingly accepted,but there are still plenty of creative people-authors and artists and scholars-who are doing original work,“ Ms. Wilensky said in an interview. “Its

17、kind of an insult that that ideal is gone, and now were left only to make collages (拼贴) of the work of previous generations.“In the view of Ms. Wilensky,whose writing skills earned her the role of informal editor of other students“ papers in her freshman dorm, plagiarism has nothing to do with trend

18、y academic theories.The main reason it occurs, she said, is because students leave high school unprepared for the intellectual rigors of college writing.“If youre taught how to closely read sources and synthesize them into your own original argument in middle and high school, youre not going to be t
