No, I was being funny. I think the "Me First" attitude and the end justifies the means has a lot to do with it in the world of today, but you will always find people of character that still exist.

During one of my computer classes in college some students knew what the output was supposed to look like and they just typed it up on the screen using xedit and printed it out. The teacher "said" that he would run your porgrams to see if they worked. Obviously, he didn't. Those of us who got their programs to worked learned, the cheaters didn't. I know who is better off in the long run.

See I cheated. I didn't use spell checker - porgrams = programs and I didn't use grammar checker - programs to worked = programs to work

Now if I am elected, I promise to . . . ;-)

No, the cheaters will be promoted to management much faster but they’ll keep you around because they can’t actually do the work themselves. :)

Sophomore year I took a history class, and after the end of the semester we received a group email from the TA saying we were a great class, we all did well, she hoped we took the following class the next semester, blah blah blah... then at the end she said she was very happy because it was the first class in six or seven classes she had ever been a TA for where she didn’t have to report someone for an ‘academic integrity issue’. I was surprised that cheating was that rampant in my school, seeing how I never knew anyone who admitted to it.
