Btw, this is one of the reasons why a proper essay should contain explicit source information about every fact, that way mistakes like "the tour started in march" or "jim produced the album" couldnt have happened.
But I guess this was rather a minor essay, so the teacher probably didnt really care about things like that.

Despite of the seeming uniformity of school systems (not really)...the teacher as a person still remains a teacher as an individual...
I've known students putting in bogus bibliographical sources and getting away with it...in other words...getting away with murder...
