Send your partner an email, tell him to fix this poo poo or he's fried, then go from there. Let the professor know informally about the situation to cover your bases, though maybe downplay the egregiousness of the plagiarism. The truth is in the middle

Go to the authorities first or you risk getting caught up in the investigation especially once he realizes how much trouble he's in and starts scrounging for leniency and twists your words around

Shoot the loving civilians; he already has the rules read to him every university makes you sign an academic honesty contract and doing anything other than going to the professor will put you at risk.

That works until it doesn't. In larger groups sure, but he also said it wasn't the first time. That is habitual. That is not "it was this one time!" Or "I don't really do this a lot." That is trouble. That is someone who will try to drag someone down with them. Did you have troop before? Cause I had a dude exactly like that and it took 3 years to get him kicked out because everyone kept giving him second chances.

McNally posted:So my advisor suggested I talk to the registrar, so I went over there and after a lot of back and forth, I was told that the state minimum for academic forgiveness is, indeed, four years but they also let schools set stricter policies, and the school's policy is five. Okay, so update on all this bullshit. After I spoke with my advisor, I went to the dean of students and said "the registrar's office was deliberately stonewalling me and my advisor on this" and basically told my story from the beginning (with four part harmony) and was basically rewarded with a combination of horror and incredulity. But I was told that I should submit the paperwork I got from advising assistance. Turns out what I was given wasn't an appeals form, it was an application for a policy exemption. Anyway, long story short is that my application was approved and now I have a non-poo poo GPA. Gotta take math again, though.

I should have mentioned this earlier because it's super-duper relevant: every report that we turn in is required to have a signed statement at the end saying, in effect, "the work contained herein is my own." I signed that statement and turned in the previous report believing that was true, but I am now finding out that was not the case through no fault of my own. That's why I'm pissed, that's why I'm not going to try and sweep it under the rug.

drat, if the professor didn't have you sign something like that, then i imagine cheating would be allowed? or, more than likely, you just sign a piece of fluff that is already explicitly spelled out on the syllabus you get at the beginning of the semester. were i the jackass who cheated, and you threw me under the bus, i would sure as poo poo make sure it runs over you as well and bitch and moan that you knew the first assignment was plagiarized as well. i wouldn't have anything to lose at that point, so why not?

Do well the first semester and let that 4.0 do the mental legwork for why poo poo matters. Good for you man. I am so pissed that you have gotten hosed over and over again, but hopefully this is a good day for you.

The professor doesn't care about your petty squabbles unless he has to deal with the Administration because of it. He's going to deal with it if you turn in some poo poo that's plagiarized. You ask for an extension because you weren't satisfied with your partners work. You do not elaborate. You quickly email your partner telling him he's about to get his dick smashed in if he doesn't right the ship. In the meantime, you make second file rewriting all of his plagiarized poo poo with the best you can do, and if the partner doesn't pull through, you turn in the non-plagiarized piece as is and take your C. After the fact, you go to the professors office hours and say "this is the poo poo he gave to me". I would recommend a more direct route, but you said you don't have a lot of time to deal.

We had a power outage on campus last year. A bunch of lazy elevator riders got stuck inside them for a couple of hours and the fire department had to get them out. There's only 4 floors in most buildings so unless you've got a mobility issue it's just peak laziness.

Given all the time in the world the dude could figure something out and work it out between them. Given the timeline, however, assuming OP did his end on time, that other guy completely hosed him over (and did so in the past) and deserves whatever happens. It's almost like he is responsible for his actions or something.

I've spent the past 26 months gifting basically braindead, entitled shitheads As in group projects while they can't be asked to maintain anything drastically above a 2.75 GPA to value how much their parents are paying for their education. Last semester, I lost my 4.0 GPA over a group project that I couldn't save. One group members couldn't be bothered to read the project concept I gifted them, and when I begged them to at least look over the section they had ignored so they'd at least know WHAT to talk about , they declined because "it would make them nervous before the presentation, and they don't really need that right now". Professor called the bluff mid-presentation, and despite me trying to fix her idiocy by talking a lot, we got a letter-grade deduction. I'm currently dealing with a group where four out of six members have put in a combined two hours of effort in the last day of four running weeks of project work, ignored every email I sent literally laying out what they need to do step-for-step, then promised they'd do something, walk back on that promise, and then lied about ever making the promise, instead blaming me for their complete inability to do anything at all, because I caused "confusion", and was "unclear" and "contradictory on what needed to be done". You know unclear on explaining to them the instructions in the project prompt they couldn't be bothered to look at. They then went ahead and threw a hissy-fit over me asking them to turn in something in the final two days, "ruining their weekends", texted everyone behind my back (including the one group member that likes me, which they don't know), and complained to the professor. From other acquaintances in the business school, I've now heard through the grapevine how much poo poo they've been talking behind my back, and that they're planning on giving me a lovely peer evaluation. This project can now cost me my Summa Cum Laude degree. loving at the notion that I owe any of these entitled lazy shitheads even the least bit of leniency when they decide to jeopardize my degree, scholarship, and academic progression by lazily plagiarizing.

Oh, the poo poo they phoned in during the last day before our first set of deliverables was due? Two sets of 700-word gibberish that reads like a valley girl talking about her weekend. They're confident that they've done their part and that it is quality work. These kids could be presented the "Kruger-Dunning certificate of academic excellency" at their graduation and they'd be proud of it.

Having had experience (and failing) at a university when I was younger, restarting at CC was great but also mind numbing as it felt like sitting in a glorified high school. I'm in my last few semesters for my undergrad now, finally seeing some semblance of light at the end of the tunnel owns.

Naked Bear posted:You're right, though: this isn't the military. There, you stick your neck out for your buddy because he's covering your rear end, too. That's not the case here. This is so loving true. When I first got out I could not believe the amount that people in the civilian workforce just blatantly gently caress each other over. I'm leading a group project in business school and it's impossible to get anyone to just do their poo poo and show up to the meetings. I've already kicked one guy out because he missed the first 3 meetings, and he acted super indignant about it. I sent him a text 45 minutes before each one to remind him. gently caress group work. Actually, gently caress school. The only good thing about it is it's easier to find yourself balls deep in a 21 year old on a pile of coats drunk on lovely beer at a lovely party filled with idiots who hold ideas of self-importance despite having never contributed anything of value to the world.
