Hi all, I signed up to post this question, because I am struggling with it. I am a first year PhD student, and we have several online forums where we post and debate the material. This is the 2nd time I caught the same student copying my work word for word. The instructor so far has not noticed. My dilemma is that we are a group of friends/co-workers, and she's going trough something difficult in her life right now. I feel angry and betrayed, and I worry I might end up getting in trouble for it. I am unsure what steps to take, as this will disrupt a lot. I could use some advise, thank you all, greetings
