Ohio University: When Thomas Matka was held back from entry into a Ph.D. program in Mechanical Engineering, he went to the library and unearthed 37 cases of plagiarism in M.S. and Ph.D. theses in his department, some with identical sections turned in sequentially to the same faculty member... his advisor.  The alleged plagiarists (some of whom had already gone on to become professors) were later asked by the university to either forfeit their degree or rewrite their thesis.
