Statement of the Problem:
• Igor Zakarov committed plagiarism in his final paper.
• His professor Graham was suspicious about his writing style.

Suggestion of Possible Solutions
• Igor should be punished with an F score for the paper.
• Igor could have another chance to write the paper again.
• Igor should fail the paper and the course.

Evaluation of Possible Solutions
• He has to take responsibility for his mistake.
• He should learn the policies for plagiarism in USA.
• He should have another chance to write the paper by himself, he is a good student.

Igor Zakarov who is an international student from Russia, now studies in a University in Virginia. He studied very hard and got a 3.8 GPA. He didn’t have enough time to prepare for his final paper. So he asked his friend George to help him. George proposed him to buy a $ 50 paper written by others. Igor had some struggle but decided to buy it. After turning in his paper, Professor Graham had some doubts and asked him to write an abstract of the paper.

Igor finished the abstract paper uncomfortably and got a University’s Academic Regulations from the professor. He regretted what he has done.

On one side we think Igor should be punished and fail the course. In order to be a Graduate student, he should be responsible for his actions. Being a student in USA does not allow you to plagiarize, even if you are international student that means that your schedule is tighter and you have less time to do your work.

On the other side Igor should get a second chance to rewrite the paper. In general he is a good student and his first mistake should be forgiven. The punishment shouldn’t be so severe, and his professor should give him a chance to rewrite the paper.

As a conclusion, Igor must assume his responsibility but not in a very severe way because he is a good student. One mistake shouldn’t erase few years of hard working. He should fail the paper but not the whole course.
