At my university, if you forget a citation like that (even by mistake) in undergraduate you almost guarantee yourself an F for that class. If you do that kind of thing in graduate studies, you can almost be certain you'll be booted from the program.
What Cosgrove did is not something taken lightly in the academic community. This could have serious consequences to the research he does in the future.
