DalhousieU dumps anti-plagiarism software

From The Toronto Star:

A decision by Dalhousie University not to renew its contract for anti-plagiarism software has some professors wondering how they’re going to nab cheaters.

The school has discontinued its relationship with turnitin.com after “we lost trust in the partnership,” said Dwight Fischer, the institution’s chief information officer.

Specifically, the school learned in July that student papers were being stored on U.S. servers instead of Canadian servers as had been contracted.
