  1. Academic Staffs PLAGIARISM

  2. Madonna G. Constantine • A professor of psychology and education with a focus on racial issues at Columbia’s Teachers College, was sanctioned in February, after an 18-month investigation into the plagiarism charge, but allowed to stay in her job and to appeal the ruling that she had violated the university’s academic standards. But over the last five months, tensions between Dr. Constantine and the administration grew more strained as she vigorously defended herself, filing not just the appeal but also a grievance against Susan Fuhrman, the college president.

  3. Principal Jim Caudill • A high school principal in Naperville, Illinois has been fired after he delivered a former student’s speech without attribution. Bravo to the school district, for holding administrators to the same standards as the students.

  4. Professor Sharif Shakrani • MSU professor Sharif Shakrani has been released from university affiliation after a campus investigative committee found he engaged in research misconduct, university spokesman Kent Cassella said last week in a statement. • An investigation led by two separate committees of university officials found Shakrani guilty of plagiarism and announced their findings in April after nearly eight months of investigation. • As a fixed-term faculty member who worked in MSU’s Education Policy Center, Shakrani used unattributed material during a 2010 report examining the consequences of school district consolidation

  5. Ward L. Churchill • Ward L. Churchill became the center of a national debate on free speech after he was dismissed in 2007 by the University of Colorado from his tenured faculty position on the grounds of academic misconduct. Mr. Churchill sued, accusing the university of firing him for the controversial essay he wrote on Sept. 12, 2001, in which he characterized some workers in the World Trade Center as "little Eichmanns." On April 2, 2009, a jury ruled in Mr. Churchill's favor. • The university's board of regents had voted 8-to-1 for Mr. Churchill's termination, citing plagiarism and the falsification of parts of his scholarly research on the persecution of American Indians. Mr. Churchill became a tenured faculty member in 1991 and was chairman of the department of ethnic studies
