You might be thinking to yourself – what’s the big deal? Everyone does it. We worked together.
Well you would be wrong. Cheating is not doing your own work, and claiming someone else’s work as your own. I know I have said many times that if I wanted a group lab report, essay, project, etc I would have asked for one but clearly my statements are falling on deaf ears.
Cheating is not tolerated in my classroom and when I catch you you WILL receive a zero for the assignment at best and a trip to your principal at worst.
One of your classmates said to me “Wow, you are the first teacher to notice” and seeing as how most of you are seniors I find that pathetic.
Plagiarism of any type, or cheating of any type is not and will not ever be acceptable in my class and I hope to NEVER see it again. I am very disappointed in those of you who chose incorrectly but hope that you will take this as a lesson learned.
I’m not a stickler about this because I’m a jerk – but because this kind of behavior has serious consequences. In college being caught cheating has a penalty of permanent expulsion – if you don’t believe me read this article. Even if you think the punishment was severe for the crime, this could be you one day if you make the same mistake. In your job, cheating can get you fired… or sent to prison. Copyright infringement carries stiff fines and jail time, even if you didn’t mean to.
I hope this is the last time I have to speak about this, and I hope that you learn something from this experience.

If you’re too lazy to do it, thats your problem. You don’t need to screw everyone else’s life up by coping thier work. You know what happens? You both fail. So be the somewhat better person and take the zero and start acting like the college students that you will be. Its not that hard.
