Plagiarism in all its forms is ugly, theft of the worst nature. I did a similar thing ONCE when I was in the sixth grade. I copied a political cartoon out of a large paper and took it to school.

When the teachers asked if it was original, I answered yes. The subject of the cartoon was the state governor who visited the school a few days later and some teacher showed him the cartoon.

When confronted, I tried to lie out of the embarrassing situation which compounded my misery. I will never copy someone's work again!
