Via Joanne Jacobs [1], “Plagiarism article sparks copycatting duel [2]”

I'm experiencing lots of schadenfreude today [3]. In this case, it's my old
alma mater, FAU (Florida Atlantic Univeristy) [4], and in other news, ex-FAU
(Florida Atlantic University) administrator Carla Coleman [5] [DELETED-
President Anthony Catanese-DELETED] is arrested.

FAU is such a fun school …

Update on Tuesday, July 1^st, 2003

My friend Ken Maier [6] just wrote in to clarify that it wasn't Anthony
Catanese that was arrested, but Carla Coleman.

I'm going to have to work on my reading comprehension skills now …
