- MG,
- I've heard of fraternity boys (I assume that is the "greek system" - my
- Greek friend is not happy that fraternity boys call themselves "Greeks,"
- so I try not to) who keep all old papers and exams on file, and use them to
- cheat.
-
- I tutored an athlete (football) who would come to sessions without having
- read the material or gone to lecture, but with a copy of someone's lecture
- notes, and a copy of the next quiz! (not even last year's, this years!).
- But he obviously didn't study, and even with all this "help," he got a D
- in the course.
-
- I doubt that a student can cheat his way through all of college and get
- good grades. Does anyone know of someone who has done that? If they can,
- maybe they could cheat through grad school, too. (just kidding, I know the
- systems are different...)
