Jane Goodall plagarism

   How serious is plagiarism? Plagiarism is a serious offense for someone in school, and can cause a student to be expelled. It also can ruin someone's career if they are someone like a jounalist. Even though plagarism is not a real crime, it still has serious consequences. I think that Jane Goodall's plagarism is not very serious beacuse she apologized. She told people how it she didnt mean to and that she is very sorry if this hurt anybody. The information I needed to evaluate the situation was her background, like if she had plagiarized before, and if she had said anything publicly about it or not. 
   I think that she should fix her book and give credit where credit is due, but she should not be ridiculed because of it. To fix this situation, I think Goodall, her co-author, and publicist should revise the book and make new copies instead of selling the ones where she plagarized. I think that plagarisim is not a right thing to do, but there are some exceptions to whether or not the person is guilty. I think that Jane Goodall should not be treated unfiarly because of her mistake.
