ESL program tolerating plagiarism

From an article in The Salt Lake Tribune - I was really shocked by this. I've never worked in an IEP that tolerated plagiarism, much less encouraged it, as this program seems to be doing. Interesting read.

Is Southern Utah University tolerating plagiarism?

Foreign students and tolerance

I'm attaching here a link to an article from Inside Higher Ed about racism toward international students. I don't know how much of a problem this has been for our students, but I remember several unpleasant incidents when I worked at Kansas State. Interestingly, this article was written by a professor at ODU - Chris Glass. Anyone know him? It's interesting to read perspectives on international students from others at our university, and it makes me think there's more communication and collaboration needed across departments.

Presidential Election Prezi

I came across this today and thought it could be really interesting to use in class. Very helpful graphics about the big changes that were voted on Tuesday. If you use it in the classroom, let me know!
