Sarah Grace Goolden Opinions Editor Plagiarism is a form of stealing. However, it sometimes is not as simple as other types of robbery. For example, during a home invasion, it is very clear what has been stolen since there is proof that person purchased the item. There are receipts that can guarantee the buyer ownership. In the case of ideas, the concept of intellectual property … Continue reading A Plagiarism Generation: the Blurred Lines of Originality
