Chapel Hill – The chairman of the Department of African and Afro-American Studies at UNC has resigned from the department’s top post amid a university investigation into academic irregularities, possibly involving two former football players. …
McAdoo, who was kicked off the team for academic misconduct, was found to have plagiarized large portions of a paper on Swahili culture assigned to him by Nyang’oro.
The university was embarrassed this summer after learning that the university’s student honor court had not discovered McAdoo’s plagiarism. The offense was discovered after N.C. State fans ran McAdoo’s paper through an online plagiarism checker.
