Possible plagiarism issue at University of Alaska Southeast

Dean of Students Jessie L. Grant of University of Alaska Southeast has resigned, giving no specific reason. The Whalesong student newspaper had presented evidence of possible plagiarism by Grant in an article published in Capital City Weekly.

Of the issue of whether the University of Alaska Southeast has an obligation to inform future employers of the issue, there was a quote from Chancellor John Pugh :

“From our viewpoint, and from our attorney’s view point, we do not have any responsibility to any future employer.”
