Cheating

Thursday April 6, 2006

There Are Times When You Should Think About It

Surveys conducted over the past few years have shown that cheating is on the rise among high school students. One report from 2005 states that more than 70% of students surveyed admitted to taking part in some type of serious cheating, and nearly 60% said they had plagiarized from Internet sources. Many students say they aren't too concerned about it.

Is that what you think? Maybe there are times when you should think about it. Lots of those past cheaters are in the working world, now.
