It’s not a good day for Auburn University. The New York Times reports on an academic free ride for 18 members of the school’s football team, and the School of Architecture has foolishly ripped off Khoi Vinh’s Subtraction.com, thanks to an apparent misinterpretation of Khoi’s Creative Commons License.

UPDATE: Rusty Smith, the man responsible for the School of Architecture site, has very graciously apologized for his mistake. Good discussion about plagiarism in the comments.
