OK, Speech class. Last assignment was a partnered debate.
I was given the affermative to outsourcing (As in for outsourcing), my partner was given the Against outsourcing side.
I spent, and I kid you not, no less then 6 hours researching this stupid thing, and had a DAMN good speech to give.
Day of the speech, my partner shows up 10 minutes late to class, just after the previous group finished their debate and ours started. He begins his speech from reading a paper and it is 100% word for word [url=http://www.cio.com/archive/090103/money.html]This article[/url] , one of the sources I used.
Then the questions start, he knows jack **** about outsourcing, his facts were all WAY off. I whooped him.
I give my speech, in the manner the teacher wanted (Notecards for sources, the rest from memory to suit the situation).
In short, I actually DID research, I gave the speech the way the instructor wanted, and what is my grade? A ****ING 76%.
Meanwhile my plagurising know-nothing partner? He gets a B. WHAT THE ****?!?
I am SOOOO pissed. And have no rebuttal, I could get the other kid kicked out of school for plagurising, but thats it.
GAH. :mad:

Soo, don't blame the teacher that much, I doubt I could remember 20 speechs enough to recognize a plaugerized speech.
I AM tempted to hint to the teacher, just how to do it without it linking back to me...
as my partner is also my neighber here in the apartment complex, and I just became the manager here, so now he's a tenent under me...
Better me mad at a tenent then a tenent mad at me.
