What is the instructor's purpose?

I have found this discussion very enlightening. I have a question of another nature. We have a faculty member who has given students an assignment to write a paper. In his instructions to the students he tells them that they may plagiarize or use any means necessary to complete the paper. We have a very strict academic integrity policy which explicitly states plagiarism is prohibited. The faculty in question revealed his instructions about the paper and his views toward plagiarism in front of a group of nontenured faculty. I learned of this revelation second-hand. I am wondering how members of the list might handle this situation. Thanks.
