Dilemma in universities Why study or investigate if everything is
plagiarized? The reign of COPY AND PASTE
In religious books, the end of the world and the
arrival of the horses of the apocalypse are announced; fanaticism presents them
as infernal monsters that bring the worst for the earth (death, desolation,
wars, hunger, misery,). In reality, these animals are unjustly accused because
those problems already exist in different places and with different intensity,
either alone or together. The arrival of such "fearsome" apocalyptic
horses will be an anecdotal or trivial event, in any case, they will arrive
when the sun comes out at night.
What is really dangerous and harmful is the
Culture of Plagiarism, which like an epidemic has spread throughout the world.
Nobody, except those who are prepared, who have moral strength, talent,
vocation for transparency, can face the heralds of this culture and will not be
infected. The students of basic level, university undergraduate and
postgraduate fall in the temptation, consider and practice as if it were a
brilliant sport the plagiarism in its multiple forms, sizes and colors.
Before the Internet domain, university students to
graduate, went to libraries to read, investigate, learn, form their own
opinion; today only a thesis with the appropriate title and title is searched,
then two magic keys are used, COPY AND PEGA. In a matter of minutes, after
minimal changes (university, name and place) the thesis is finished. In the
universities do not they realize the trap? It is possible, but in the majority,
they follow the "laissez faire, laissez passer" rule because there
are business opportunities, because many of those involved (advisors,
reviewers, jury) already cheated, for them, incompetence and corruption, assure
complicity and impunity.
Students who want to pass the exams also do the
same, resort to plagiarism, for which they demonstrate a capacity for
inventiveness and surprising adaptation. The students, before going to the
library, now can not even define what a library is.
Consequences? Mediocrity, cheating, deceit,
exclusion of the best; the enthronement and power of the worst.
Is plagiarism harmful? For a country that wants to
be big, developed and create possibilities for the future, it is highly
damaging. When the god of "copy and paste" is sanctified and honors,
the cheater is imitated and protected, there is no possibility of creating the
