If you wrote a paper on Ernest Hemingway's, "The Old Man and The Sea." and you copied a paragraph(s) directly from the book, did you have to get Mr. Hemingway's written consent to do so? No, you simply gave him recognition in either a footer or in the bibliography. You didn't call Ernest Hemingway and say, "Hey, Big Hem, do you mind if I copy a couple paragraphs of your book to use in my report? - no, you just did it and gave him recognition.

So do copyright laws flex for students?
