My mom is a teacher, but doesn't bust many for plagiarizing as she teaches the third grade. But occasionally she'll have to talk to the parents when they are helping their children too much with their assignments (it's obvious).

But my friends mom was a nursing professor, and she was reading a masters thesis from a student of hers. She thought it sounded very similar, so she rooted through previous thesis's from students and found the exact same one word for word. This student in her masters program completely plagiarized her thesis! Needless to say, she failed and was kicked out of the school.
