>From the Introduction: NOTE FROM CHRIS: ~~~ Harvard sophomore Kaavya Viswanathan was accused of plagiarizing material from three different sources for "How Opal Mehta Got Kissed, Got Wild, and Got a Life," her novel about an Indian-American teenager and her struggle to get into Harvard. Viswanathan's six-figure contract was subsequently cancelled and her formerly hot book pulled off the market by the publisher.
