Talk:Joe Biden presidential campaign, 1988

[edit] Plagiarism

According to http://nutsandbolts.washcoll.edu/plagiarism.html, he used a single footnote to cite five full pages of an article, which is inadequate by any academic standard. This sentence in the article, "Biden initially received an “F” in an introductory class on legal methodology for writing a paper relying almost exclusively on a single Fordham Law Review article, which he had cited.", implies that he cited it correctly and was only punished for using a single source. That seems dishonest to me, but perhaps someone could clarify this before I make any changes. Lindentree 19:15, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
