Good topic. As an administrator you hope you don't ever have to deal with these issues, but if they come up you should be prepared with a game plan on how to.

Thanks for the kind words, Ms. James.

I just wanted to add that on this panel, I will be joined by Jonathan Bailey of PlagiarismToday, as well as 2-3 other panelists TBD.

I appreciate any and all interest in the panel!

If Jonathan is joining you on the panel, you will have a great catcher/pitcher/batter all thrown together. Good luck.
