Dear Shelia Sweeney
I find it really unfortunate to be held accountable for plagiarism which is a serious academic offence, although I already presented my circumstances in front of the Judicial review Board. From the day, I joined this institution, I was well- aware of the plagiarism policy of the institution. On my part, I do consider that plagiarism is a serious academic offence. I have thoroughly gone through the legal aspects of the plagiarism offence mentioned in the academic policy of United States government. I respect the decision of the judicial board, but I think the judicial board has narrowly considered my circumstances and I view the board’s decision precipitous in nature.
I conveyed my legitimate concerns to the board on August 22nd when I first appear in front of the judicial board. I still consider that my circumstances were so compelling that I copy-pasted the wrong content. I would like to draw attention to the point that if plagiarism was all I wanted, I would have copied the right content that time. It was purely an unintentional and incidental act. This offence is serious, undoubtedly, but so are my issues. Furthermore, I have been an excellent student with exceptional academic record. I have maintained a GPA of 3.88 and I have never missed any class. This is the reason that I have remained on the dean’s list for my attendance to ECPI.
I respect the authority of the judicial committee, but at the same time I think I have all the right to file an appeal against this decision since it affects my academic credentials. I am available any time to follow the proceedings against this appeal.
Looking forward to a response from your end.
Yours Sincerely,
Sidney King.
