| For those who love irony Posted: 4/1/2008 9:27:53 AM | I thought I’d share this little bit of irony as you really can’t make this kind of stuff up. This has had me cracking up all morning.
The University of Texas needed a new honor code regarding plagiarism. So, what did they do? They plagiarized BYU’s honor code on plagiarism! You heard it right; they plagiarized their honor code on plagiarism. Sweeter irony hath never been brought to fruition…
Brilliant!
