Anecdote
I've just finished reading through 8 final-year project reports (it would have been 9 but I got an email saying I don't have to read the last one, yesterday's notes for plagiarists having apparently come too late for one of them).
Because I know you like to see the high standard of material I get to enjoy at Final Year Project time, here are some of the things I've read this time round (leaving out ones that could be used to identify the author to anyone other than the author). I hope you find them as intellectually stimulating as I did.

Towers are a major part of a tower defence game
I myself, much like the other people in my peer group, cannot live a day without the technologies we have access to every single day.
Type 4: But it Makes Perfect Sense!
It was a result of me copying and pasting the code because alot of it then work was repetitive.
This could of theoretically worked, but the absence of implemented any form of concurrent modification error exception handling, or to that point a way of stopping the update from causing concurrent modification errors.
Although the deadline is coming and there is little process, a detailed target of what should be reached is a good way to make the project completed successfully.
Type 5: I'll Finish that Off Later
