Internet gives rise to a bold new era in college-student cheating - Nahal Toosi, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Sometimes, pure dumb luck saved him. Take his freshman year at Marquette University, when he and a buddy turned in the same paper, which neither had written, to separate sections of an introductory English course taught by different teachers. His friend got caught for cheating and earned an F. He got an A, along with the teacher’s written comment, “Great paper!” Now, he is a senior in the business school, and cheating remains a habit, though primarily in courses he doesn’t care much about electives or general classes such as theology and ethics. Ripping off papers from Web sites is a favorite method.
