What Plagiarism Looks Like

Index

This page will tell you where in the original Boening thesis each portion of Meehan's plagiarized thesis originated.

How to read: M indicates a page number in the original Meehan document (not necessarily the PDF). B indicates a page in the original Boening document (again, not necessarily the PDF). For example, in Chapter 1 there is an entry "M3 B3". This tells you that the plagiarized material appearing on page three of Meehan's thesis came from page three of Boening's thesis. Similarly, "M19 B15"  indicates that material on page nineteen of Meehan's thesis came from page fifteen of the Boening thesis.
