Do colleges check essays for plagiarism?

I suddenly regret posting mine on a forum online. . .

So yes to the original question? Because then I would feel better about leaving the essays up. I do want feedback on them, but I just don't want them to be copied obviously.

If they do check for plagiarism would I still need to be worried about people stealing my stuff? I mean they won't do it if they're going to get caught. . .
