Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Recently, it has become a common notion that the revolutionary scholar should have a relationship of theft with the university, which draws from Fred Moten and Stefano Harney and others. This paper challenges this relationship as revolutionary by stating, relationships of theft already exist in the university as seen amongst cheaters, an embodiment that is always already deemed criminal in the university.This article examines theft as it takes place in the politics of plagiarism, and cheating as two case studies that demonstrate that theft itself requires the facilitation of anti-Black property logics. In the examination of both moments, plagiarism and cheating, it is evident that the university subject’s relationship to property and ownership dictates which university subjects can steal and indeed force “mobility, and security” for themselves and their communities, and which university subjects and communities are perpetually stolen from, never fully having ownership over property. Assigning theft as a task only expands the role of the scholar, and by extension the university, both of which only exist to “violently extract” ( Kim, 2017 ) the knowledge and resources that is to be stolen.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
